Default what set up to go with?

Hey fellas, here is my situation. I'm getting 18" x 9" wheels in the front and 18" x 10" in the rear. Please help me decide what tire set up to go with. The tires that I'm buying will be the BFG KDW NT's I know both setups will work I just don't know what will be the preferred size.

The rear wheels have 41mm offset and I do not want to BFH or roll the fenders so I'm think that maybe the 275 on the rear makes more since just in case the 295's are too large on the rears. But I don't want the tires to have that stretched looked to them?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I voted for the second choice. It will look more aggressive.
