If it's a stock width 18" rim I think the consensus is a 255. I know others in the past have put 275s on the rear but thought they looked a bit out of place.

Yeah I don't want it to look stupid. I currently have 235/50ZR18's
Just want some more width back there, but if its only going to be minimal and not very noticeable then I will just stick with what I have.

If you're needing tires I would still step up to the 255s. For the life of me I never understood why the new Stangs came with such narrow rubber. In past models the 17 inch stockers were always 245/45's.
I know what you're talking about for the desire of bigger meats. Just last year I went from 245/50 16s all around on my 96Gt to 285/35 18's and 265/35 18's in front. It looks killer.
I have the stock 18" Fanblades on my 06 and I think they're an 8.5 inch width. I'll definately be going the 255 route when the need arises.
