just a heads up... your going to get a hell of a stretch on a 255/30 over a 9.5" wheel.

I think the recommended size for the 9.5's is 265/30.

No, no you're not.

I've got 255/35 on a 9.5 and you can't even tell. 9.5" is well within the recommended fitment for a 255 tyre.

For reference, I have a 9.5 ET45 with a 255/35/18, and there's easily 10mm of space before you even need to start thinking of arch work. About 20mm until flush with the arch.

Also, 255mm is 10", so it really comes down to how close to true size the tyre brand is, can run about an inch in variation from what I've seen, some are meatier with squarer sidewalls, others thinner with a more rounded one.
