I think its because he has 19x10 and +35 offsert (rear) .

I don't know how to explain it sorry !!
265s wouldn't cover the lip of ur wheels.....275s are better and will have some wheel/lip protection.

you wanna play it safe, then go with a 265 either toyo or falken tire, since they are made norrower than competing tires...

streched is when the wheel is wider than the tire, so the tires sidewalls have to stretch out to the width of the wheel... so instead of looking like this l__l(non-stretch), it will look like this \__/(stretched)

does this help??

But then you said it would work just fine from your previous post??

Ok I don't mean to be annoying, I just hope that 275 will work fine without doing any modification
