    For your 18x9.5 +35 rims, 225/35/18 and 235/35/18 tires might be too narrow, potentially causing a stretch. The 225/40/18 or 235/40/18 tires are better options, but they might increase the overall diameter. With a +35 offset, the rims will sit relatively flush, but you should test-fit to ensure no rubbing during full lock-to-lock steering. If your vehicle is lowered, the taller tires could potentially rub. Consulting a professional tire and wheel shop for specific advice is recommended.

    I went with 225/55/17 on 17x7 and it's a perfect fit.
    Fills the wheel well nicely.
