I run 275/40’s on my 10" wheels… if you want a trapzoid then try 255 at the very minumum, but also realize that different brands and even different models within a brand name have very different tread widths for a given aspect. Also relaize that not all brands will have the features to support trapzoid mounting without a rim clamp. That being said I’m also running a 225/45 on my front 9.5" but the FK451’s have a very wide tread width and a bead profile suited to this. ---

if your gonna go a 225 go with a smaller rim it looks stupid for the rim to stick out mor than the tire. but my advise is if your going 18 x 10 you can fit a 285 and it would look sweet and you would hook nice.
