I havent seen anything wider than that. One of my customers has the HRE 18x10 rear wheels. They also fit an 18x10.5 that will still use the 285/30-18. I guess you could go to any size if you want to roll the fenders or get a wide body kit. 285 will be fine if you dont lower it too much of at all. They are a little heavier, especially in the rear.

RT has 10" Fikse with 285/30 and lowered.
Of course his offset is somewhere in the neighborhood of +76!
