are you going to leave the factory camber squat or get an alignment and adjustable arms to bring it back closer to zero?? if so a 265/35 and maybe a 275/35 will fit if you leave it but if you stand them straight up especially when going a bit lower than you are currently then you might only be able to get away with only a 255/35 which I had to do on my 18x10.5 dumped with alignment on a factory rolled-nonpulled fender

I ask only because putting a bigger tire on is for traction right ? otherwise you are just using half of a more expensive tire with unnecessary camber when improperly aligned
