Nitto NT05 size question

Im looking at putting a set of NT05s on my stock 18 in wheels. I just wanted to know which size tires would work the best, 225/40zr18 or 235/40zr18 in the front and 245/40zr18 or 265/35zr18. Any help would be great.

For stock wheel size 225/245 is the only thing that will optimally use the whole tire for traction as 235/265 is a bit wide for the wheel size and will not use the full tire.
