Recommended tire size for 18x8.5 +36 and 18x9.5 +35

I just bought some Work Meister S1 18 X 8.5 +36 front and 18 X 9.5 +35 rear. According to the FD Sizing chart, 245's should go up front and 265 in the rear. I would like to run fatter tires in the front and back. Would 265 front and 285 in the rear fit? The chart says that with the 245's, there's a 0.16 outer clearance in the front and 0.12 outer clearance in the rear. The rear fender is rolled and the front fender is not yet rolled.

Thanks!

the widest i can run on my 18x9.0s is a 275 so i opted for the 265, you can run 285's but that is the widest, so i'd go with a 275. the front's i would stick with a 245, 265's are too wide for a 8.5" wheel
