235/40 are too tall, same for 245/40
255/35R18 are very close to factory diameter also and will be better suited for a 9" wheel. (if you can fit a 255 upfront, depending on offset you may not)
265/35 are pretty close too, but into uncharted territory, unless running just on rears.
I verified my tire specs on TireRack.com before I purchased.
Check the tires you like versus the OEM diameter (24.7") and revolutions per mile (844) and compare. Do this because all tire brands are a bit different.

well I am actually running a staggered setup; 18x8 front and 18x9 rear.
I figure 225/40 is the way to go for the fronts.
245/35 seems to be perfect but it doesn't seem like there are many options in that size. Not to mention that the tire I was looking at (Dunlop DZ101) isn't offered in that size.
255/35 looks like it works well but I don't know if I want that much tire back there. I mean, this particular set is mainly for looks, so maybe I shouldn't sweat it.
