Default tires for 17 x 9.5

What is the smallest tire I can run on a 9.5" rim? I just ordered a set of 17 x 9.5" and 18 x 10.5" wheels. I have a set of 275/35/18 which will give the rears the stretched look. I need to buy tires that will have the same stretched look for the fronts.

Thes two tires are brand new. Came off my 2000 vette front wheels when I bought new set of wheels & tires. I am stuck with these two tires so I decided to use them on the rears of my Transam.
