Default Best tire choice for 18x10 +25 rims?

What's going on s2ki got a few questions and need your guys help. I have XXR 521 18x8.5 all around on my car. 225/40 & 255/35 are the tires. I'm thinking about ordering the 18x10 +25 for the rears. Now what would be a good tire size to run without rubbing? What kind of alignment specs would i need to run? Mind you my s2 is on lowering springs and a basic roll front/rear, no camber kits etc.
let me know your opinions...

18x10+25 will not work with proper tires.

285/30 is the best fit for that wheel, now you just have to get a 350Z so it will actually fit on the car. In your case it would take about -5 camber and a 225/40 tire.

not gonna work. 17x9.5 +22 requires a 235 which is still too small and still doesnt fit and you want to go wider????

Research up on wheel sizes and offset, understand how it works, and then measure it out on your car. You will find, as others have said, it wont fit.

Yeah I've been doing some research leaning towards staying with the 8.5's but gonna run a 245 in the rear instead.
Thanks guys
