Tire fitting
"Hello Gs, pleased to make my debut here! Seeking some advice regarding tire sizes for
Volk Racing TE37 SL Black Edition III wheels. The specs are 18x10 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a +39mm offset.

As a newcomer to the world of wheel fitment, I'm uncertain about the ideal tire size for both front and rear applications. Your expertise would be greatly appreciated in ensuring a perfect fitment. Many thanks in advance for your guidance!"

That's a great spec to go with.
The minimum tire for a 10' rim width is a 255, so going with a 255/40R18 square works.
You can run a staggered tire setup also to utilize the difference in footprint shape by going 255/40 front and 285/35 rear. Both that the same tire diameter, the narrower, slightly stretch front will give a more responsive nature, while the more square, and taller center contact length rear will help with forward traction.
