Tire sizes?

Hey guys,
I got 8.5x18" wide front wheels and 9.5x18" rear wheels and I'm wondering what tire sizes you guys recommend?

I was thinking 235/40/18 for the front and 255/35/18 for the rear.

Those are the same sized wheels I have and the tire sizes you quoted are the same as what you quoted.
