On an 8.5" wheel, the most I would go is 265/35 or 40/18. You "can" go wider like 275 but you may run into sidewall integrity issues on the 8.5" wheel in my opinion.
I am currently running 275/35/18 Nitto Invos on wheels that are 18x9.5 with +15 offsets and it's a nice, "beefy" look while still being in spec. I could go slightly wider but don't really to.

I was just speaking from my personal set up of a square 9.5" with 275/35/18r and 255/35/18f. The 275 would make for a great fit, no doubt. I just thought the extra width on the 8.5" would be a little much. Kudos for a wider tire on a stock wheel!

Two great setups come to mind
245/40 front and 245/45 rears , this will be one of the best handling setups on stock wheels.
245/40 and 265/40 will give a a good setup, more rear traction, and subjunctive , but possible better looks. Neither combo I mention will increase fender gap.

Thx for help I already bought a couple of days ago PZero 245/35/18 front tires, so would it be acceptable to go right now into 265 or 275/35 rather than 40 for rear?
