18" Bubble Tires

Hi guys, new to this forum, not new to the auto world and sharing. I wrote a little guide for LX470/Landcruiser owners seeking to supercharge their rigs: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/hun...-guide.585427/

I searched hi and low to find this and if it's been answered, apologies.

I'm in an area with lots of potholes and I have 18" stock wheels on a 2012 E70 35d, [eddit: starting with 255/55/18 on 8.5" wide BMW stock wheels]. I'm trying to find a case study of someone with what I call "bubble wheels", the biggest sidewall, biggest tires that will fit stock without modification (not looking to trim or mess with the wheel areas).

Ideally all road/wet use.

No Off Roading will be done with this rig, maybe a little sand at the beach.

Looking to replace a set of tires and want maximum pothole protection.

Thanks for your suggestions!
