Default what size tire should i get?

hey, i have some 9inch wide wheels with 245/45/18 tires on them.. they're gettin pretty bare and i'm not exactly liking the thin look so whats the right size of tire that i should buy to go back on them.. (somethin with a little beef..)

you could bump it up to 275's im sure. 245's are whats on the 8in stock rims i believe

275 should give you a meatier look and should fit fine on 9inch rims.

i have 245's on my 9's in the front and ive always wanted to replace them with 275's

Wrong section moving to tire talk..... for the front thats ok, but I would atleast go 275 on the rear or even 285 or 295. Also depends on if you want to be able to rotate all the tires around or not. Me I could careless and I still get good mileage out of my tires. I would definitely go bigger out back purely for more traction and it looks better.
