Will 285/35/18s rub on a 9.5" rim ?

My only other option is 275/40/18s, which are about 3% too big. The 285s are actually a bit (.25%) smaller than stock.

If you are getting 18 that should not be a problem. A friend is thinking about 295 and its 10".

I am looking at these also on a 9.5 rim. What offset should be used?

BFG makes a 285/30/18 also.

30s are damn low profile, yes

35s are almost as thick as the stock 45s if you get them in the 285 width.
