you have many options. 245's/255's/265's/275's. I have run 255's and 275's on mine. The max you can go in the front is a 275/40/17. But, I belive you can go with a 285/40/17 in the back on these rims.

I'd say since you got the same sized rims all the way around go with 275/40/17's all the same so you can rotate them and get longer life from them.
