20" - 8.5 up front and 9.5 to 10 in the rear seems to be the majority there days. Running a 245/35 and a 275/30 will do the trick.

I have a 'fat 19' setup, 245/40-19 and 275-35-19 and the ride isn't bad but I only drive 20 miles a day (10 each way). If I had to drive 50 miles a day I'd get an LS430.

Yeah without a drop, bit is right, run the 18's, even then it may be to tall but I have seen it done before if you pick the right size tire.
A lot of people on here rock the 18's, may be rough compared to the 16's but it should have enough tire on there to ride pretty good.

Then your needs will produce bad results. For better ride/comfort stay with no bigger than 18's, but 18's with tall tires and no drop will look bad.
