Default which tire size?

i just bought a set of wheels from orwheels. 17x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear. rear tires are 295/35/18 already bought. i found the matching tire for the front in 2 different sizes. i want to know which would look better. a 265/40/17 or a 275/40/17. tirerack has them both for sale and there is only a $2.00 difference between them.

Definitely the 275/40R17 . . the 265's will be too small.
