Help with picking size of tires!

I have 18 by 9.5s c6 z06 all around. Ive gone to several body shops and no one could answer my question wtf!

I need tires badly, I am planning to get one size tire for all four rims so I can

rotate them due to economic reason. All I need to know what are my tire

options in size. Whats the widest I could go without the tire rubbing on any

suspension parts or inner wells and being able to rotate them. My car is stock

height by the way not lowered. Whatever biggest size I can go in the front

without no problems or safety issues is the size Im going all around.

On a 9.5" wheel I would run a 275/35/18. You'll have no issues running a 275 all around.

Thank You. Thats what I wanted to hear. No one else helped me, but you lol =). Awesome thanks bro. I knew 255 40 18 wasn't the max, stupid tire shops. That is bullshit hehe. Now tomorrow off to Americas tire shop :use:!

Yeah some guy at a tire shop told me I would not be able to go with 275 35 18s or even 265 35 18 all around because they would rub on the front.
