Default What tires and will they fit??

Hey guys looking to see what tires I should but for this set up, that would help me last through parts of the winter and most of the summer. 18x8.5 with a +56mm offset and 19x10 with a +79mm offset. The lug pattern is 5x4.75 (120.65mm). Just would like to know if they will fit, and these are c6 rims, let me know any opinions and how I should approach these wheels, thanks!

245s for the front and 285s for the rear. if you check the stickys i think they might have tire sizes in there

I'll have to agree with 99345hp as far as tire size choice.
Front: 245/40/18s=25.7"tall
Rear: 285/35/19s=26.85"tall

You also need to get a set of 1.25 inch hub spacers for the rear, which would give your rear wheels a +47.25 offset, which will be just about perfect!

What about 245/35/18? How would that work, any big difference? and 295/35/19, would that be an ok tire? I use my car mostly for dd'ing, and want to see what tire sizes are a good way of driving smoothly, thanks and hope to hear any opinions, thanks!
