My boyds are 18x8 and 18x9, I run
255/45/18
285/40/18
In my opinion this combo looks great and offer a bit of extra wheel lip protection. I would not go any narrower than 275 on a 9 in wheel though.

Also can you post more pics of your rear wheel/tire combo maybe a little closer up ? Dan

honestly I didn't think it would but recently a friend of mine put 275s on his factory 18x8.5 and he isn't even pushing it. 285 should go on it just fine, just be aware of what type of sidewall the tire has. A tire with a rounder sidewall will give you a little more flexibility, I.E. Nitto 555
