any help in geting the bigest tires to fit on c5 rims

i just got a set of c5 rims 17/8.5 in front and 18/9.5 in rear.they are true c5 rims i think I'm right on the width. Does anyone know the widest tires i can put on them? I believe they make 305 / 45/18 i think woud they fit on the rear i mean and wear good or is 185 or 175 better and on the 17 which size is best? i am looking at nitows 555, what others do you recommend? any help woud be appreciated.

Thanks

Pat

the 285/35 would be better. The 305/45 is 29" tall, not going to fit well.
