285-35-18 & 305-35-18 would be good for that wheel setup
Plenty of options in this thread or in the fat tire thread:

Bronze WORK XD9 arrived! tire suggestions?
Finally! My XD9s is here. Need some suggestions on which tires to purchase. Wheel spec is 18x9 f +20 and 18x10 r +18. My Z is currently sitting at stock height. Here are the tire sizes i am deciding to go with:
245/40/18 F
275/40/18 R
or
245/40/18 F
285/35/18 R
obviously the two choices above i will need to get some true coilovers to get rid of that 4x4 look. The only problem im concern is i might scrape my ARK Grip Exhaust because of their low angled back end of the muffler if i have to drop the car with these tire sizes.
The only thing i can think of avoiding the scraping issues is with these tire sizes if i leave it at stock height but i think its gonna look fat and ugly.
245/45/18 F
275/45/18 R
or
245/45/18 F
285/40/18 R
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated!
