I'd run 245/35 up front with 265/35 out back. the 245's tread width is exactly 9" which is a perfect fit for your fronts and the rears measure in at 10.1 so also a great match for the rears.

Typically you want to fit your front wheels with a stretch which helps with handling and less understeer.

I would run a 225/40/18 front and a 255/35/18 or 265/35/18 rear tire.
