Default wheel/tire sizes

I have noticed everyone keeps asking the same question. What tire size for these wheels? I am guilty of this question too. So can someone post the max size and recommended tire sizes for these wheels.

17x8 (stock gt wheels)
17x9
17x10.5 DD
18x9(9.5)
18x10 DD
Thanks

I guess I'll answer....
I'm simply going to go with what I recommend.

17x8: 265/40/17 or 255/40/17 all around
17x9: 275/40?/17
17x10.5: 315/35/17
18x9: 275/35/18
18x10: 295/35/18

NOW if you got 18x9 in front and 18x10 in rear I would say get a 265/35/18 in front not the 275/35
