????Do these Sizes work???
TE37 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear w/ 275/35 and 275/40 rear. Will this work for me or not? (Pics would be nice if any.)

I'm not a fan of 275s on a 10.5. Actually, I'm not a fan of 275s on 10s.

Yeah I wouldn't run with that. a 245 275 setup would be better but the wheels are too wide for those tires really. You will end up with "stretch" tires which is ok for looks if thats what your after, but is terrible for the tire and handling.

^^ I have the same question since this setup should work perfectly. I don't know why other posters here say it won't work.

why do you want 275's front and back, your fronts will look dumb compared to the rear!!!

^^ Looks aren't everything.
Maybe you want neutral handling which you get when installing the same width tires front and rear.

How ??? You really can't see the front width, and if you can , it looks like you don't have skinny tires up front

We run a 285/30x18" tire on all 4 corners with 9x18 fronts and 10x18 rears on our SCCA T2 car. The car handles very neutral. We also run the Nissan Motorsports front and rear swaybars and springs. Our shocks are way beyond what you need as they are JRZ 3 way adjustable.
