Who has 18" wheels out there? What size tires? Pics?

I might be able to get a good deal on some 18 wheels, but I need to some trucks with them first. I cant figure out waht size tires I'd need to run. 255/ 50 or 45 I'd guess. Anyone have 18's with a few pics?

I was hoping to do maybe a 245/50 in front and a 275 or 285/45 in the rear/ I dont know if the rear would rub though...

A 275/40 is alot easier to find, but I want my tires to have a little more meat. My 7 has 275/40's on the rear and its too car looking to me.
