I love the look of poverty caps. For a long time I considered doing the same thing but in 18". 18" gives you a better selection of tires with some height to fill up the rear.

A 285 fits out back with leaf springs and no tubs I did a 285 17 on teh rear of mine for the first time around. I think a 275 40 18 for the rear and a 255 35/40 18 for the front on 18x10s. That's 25"/26" tall front and 26.5" tall rear. They will fill the wheel wells up. I had a 245 on a 8.5" wheel up front with my shock tower suspension so I'm sure you can fit the 255 as long as the car isn't super slammed. I still have my custom arched leafs that Dever Spring made for me hanging around (about 2" lower ride height). If you get out this way I'd give them to you.
