Default Tire Size

Just got 17x 9.5s and 18x 10.5s ZO6 rims, was wondering what size tire to run on them. If anybody has this same setup post up pics and let me know what size and profile you went with. 275/40/18 in Rear? or 295?


Recommendations???????????

there is no 295/40 size, and if there was, it would be 27.3" tall...
the 295/35x18 is 26.1" tall...
the 275/40x17 is 25.7" tall...
