I just bought some new 18" Foose replicas. I had them put on useed tires because I didn't know what brand I wanted yet. The size is what I am having an issue with.

The front rims are 18x8 if I'm not mistaken and they put on 245/45/R18 and the rear wheels are 18x10.5" and they put on a set of 275/40/R18. They are WIDE. They look like they fit really nicely but is that the correct size for these wheels? When I search for the the 275/40/R18 I get a very slim selection, is that size that rare? Is there another size that is not far off that might look better that isn't so rare too? I'm sorry for the newb questions, I have just never dealt with wheels for a Ranger let alone wheels that are so wide. The widest I've dealt with are 17x8's on the Focus... haha!

Thanks in advance for the help! ! !
 
275/40/R18
translates to:
10.8 inches wide, 26 inches tall, with an 18 inch rim

If the rear rims are 10.5, I would think you need at least a 10 inch wide tire.


Therefore I'm fairly confident that those wheels are correct.
 
I figured that. I see that the tires fit really nice but was wondering if there was a size that was a little more common that wasn't much different since it seems the size I have is fairly rare.
