Here it goes some numbers:
Stock
265/35-18 = 642.7mm diameter
Plus 1
275/35-18 = 649.7mm diameter
Plus 2
285/35-18 = 656.7mm diameter
Thats a difference of 14mm, divide it 2, thats a 7mm higher tire. The rear of your car would be 7mm higher. Maybe it would rubb a little.
285/30 would be too short.
And if the wheel is at least 9" wide, it would be enough for the 285s. And it doesnt look bad either.
