Option 1) 295/35/18 BFG GForce T/A Radial

or

Option 2) 285/35/18 Nitto 555R Drag radials.

I wouldn't go any bigger than 285/35/18 for the rears because anything bigger will rub without rolling the fenders. I have the 2000 Cobra R (18"x9.5") wheels with 285/35/18 tires on my '94 GT. They fit just perfectly on the wheels and they look great with no rubbing (but very close). If you plan on rolling the rear fenders, then I'd say go for the 295/35/18 tires. Just my opinion.

I have the BFG KDWS II's and I love them, they hook way better than the stock F1's did, IMO. Money well spent!
