Default 18x8.5 tire question

What size tire should I get to put on a set of 18x8.5 wheels? I am putting them on a 95 Z28 Camaro, it is still factory height and I do NOT plan to lower it so I just wanted to see what size tires I should get for these wheels.

Thanks

255/40x18 would be 26" tall, about the biggest u can go on an 8.5" wheel... see if u can get a 9.5" wheel for the back and use a 285/35 with a 245/40 up front...
