Default 265 direzza?

anyone tried it v's the 255 size tire?
wondering if theres a difference on a 9" rim?

any of the decent street tires that come in sizes over 255 worth it on a 9" rim?

You'll probably have some pinching issues, which I believe I may have running the 255 on a 8.5".

The Star Spec is already wide for a 255, I can only imagine the 265 is actually closer to a 275.

255/40/17 Star Spec vs 255/40/17 RE-11

I have 265-18s on a 9" wheel and I think they fit perfectly. If you need something specific in terms of pictures or comparisons, let me know and I probably have that combination somewhere in my garage.
