Default Tire Fitment question

It looks like I'm picking up a set of JDM wheels for my 96 SC300. They are 18X8.5 and 18x9.5. (45mm offset front and rear) From searching the forums the fronts should be 245/40/18 but I'm not sure about the rear either 265 or 275/35/18. I'm not rolling and fenders, the most I will probably do is lower with Eibach springs.

245/40/18 in the front 265/35/18 in the rear and you're set. No rubbing whatsoever.

"come on man, searching is our future"

And that is where the question comes from. Additional searches indicate some people were running 275/35 instead of 265/35 with the same 9.5 wheel. Slow down on the rush to judgement
