Those will look good! 285/35/18 will rub on the front. I have seen people run 275/35/18 in the front, but that's still to wide for my taste. I have 18x9 rims and run 265/35/18 all the way around.

Original 18x9.5 Cobra R's came with 265/40/18.

275's might rub a little in the front. Also if those are true R's than the wheel/tire will stick out beyond the fender ever so slightly.

Tacbear on here has R's, not sure what size he is running. Maybe PM him.

Do you have a tuner or a speed calibrator, because you will need to adjust your speedo. Those are going to be pretty big in the front. Those might rub more than 275/35/18 . . . . good luck! Post pic!
