See here

You're running 275 on 9" front and 305 on 10" rear? I'm surprised, but encouraged, by the fact that it rides well like that. I was a little bit concerned about putting 285's on my 10" fronts when the Forgestars get here, but now not so much

According to the manufacturer tire specs, the recommended rim width for 275mm is between 9-10", with the ideal being 9.5". For a 18x10" rim the perfect tire size is considered to be 285mm, could go 295mm but that would be overkill.

for reference, my old truck with a 295/30 tire on a 10" wide rear rim.
