Sure enough...255/40-18 front and 285/40-18 rear was an option! (DUH!)
I'll get my eldest son to take some pictures and post them here and in the photo section.
The 285s came on vehicles with the 10" rear wheel upgrade. Yes, front and rear rims offsets are different for both a sets of wheels. The standard four 8.5s or a the upgrade set of 8.5 front & 10s rear. In theory, standard with the 8.5 was 245s.

Not to keep using this photo, but it's easy and I'm a fan of 95-0095. Forum member sleeper (aka: flofit, saywhen, marcus) went with 295/30 rear & 255/35 front with two series from the BFG company.




Very very old Comp T/As. 295/35 rear & 245/40 front.
