The tire combo you nees is as follows, For the front 9" rim you need 275/35/18, For the rear 10" rim you need 315/30/18. Thats what i would go with, IMO 275 for a 10" is too small.

I think my nitto 265/35 fit nicely up front. 265 or 275 for up front. 275's in the rear would look too small on a 10" rim. I would do minimum of 285 but if you can financially swing it 295-315 would look the best.
