Don't want to bring up the 9" vs 10" debate, but want to check the R888R isnt overstretched on 10" (Advan / Rays etc)

It's showing a 260mm width.

260mm is 10.2in. On a 10" wheel, it will fit perfect

What about a 245/45/17 NT-01 on a 10" wheel? too much stretch, or just at the limit and doable?

255 NT01 is perfect on a 10" with a very mild stretch. In reference to 255 NT05 on 9"s

^ Yes, i'm very well aware of running 255s on a 10" wide rim - it's the best stretch for a 255 on 17"s; however, I'm trying to setup the car to a specific point total for ruling/classing purposes.

I figured a 245/45 with a slightly taller side wall and the fact that NT-01s run wider than street tires should allow it to stretch decently well on a 10" rim and not negatively affect performance.
