Tire size for an 18x10.5 wheel ?

[Cobra 2997]

What is your recommendation on tire size for an 18x10.5 rear wheel ? I'd like at least a minimum overall height of 27.5". A 305/40/18 seems to be about right, but I don't see too many tires in that size. Maybe a 305/45/18 ?
Or, Possibly a 295/45/18 ? Or would that be stretching the tire too much on a 10.5 rim ?

Thanks !!

Thank you for the additional information.

Given the diameter you are looking to run your best option is the 295/45R-18 size. This is assuming your looking to get into a street tire as opposed to a Drag Radial. The 295/45R-18 size has an approved rim width range of 9.5" to 11".
