They will fit. Even if you have to do the BFH mod its only going to be a small area. 1/4" spacer should be enough.

I run 295/35/18s on my 18x10.5 with no problems at all. I didn't do the BFH mod either. You should be more than fine with 285s

I run a 295/35/18 on my 18x10.5's also. I had very little trouble with them. I did a little bit of beating to the fender well, but other than that they are fine. I have the DMS springs and they dont rub on my fenders either.

so for a 18x10.5 wheel with a 295/35/18 you might need a little BFH-ing but no spacers or anything else?

I run them too, and on a 10.5" wheel with 58mm offset. No problems here. I might run a 1/8" spacer for comfort.
