Default Can a guy "please" get some help

Quick question about these RT-S wheels I bought, the fronts are 18x9 with a 6.7 backspace and the rear is 18x10.5 7.7 backspace I'm want to know a good tire combo without doing any mods, whats the widest I can go in the rear without any rubbing issues, but I want everything tucked in the finder & not sticking out thanks.. Also it's on a stock 2000 camaro ss. Just want to know before the wheels come in.

Thanks, Roland T.

Id run 35's front, 30's rear, to keep the ODs close to the same.

275/35R18 on a 18x9.5 front and a 295/35R18 on a 18x10.5 rear . . a great tire combo, and what I run on my car.

Your specified rear wheel has a lot of back space, so they should be tucked quite a bit, may have to massage the inner wheel well.

My wheels are approximately 6.7 bs on the front and 7.2 bs on the rears.
