I'd run a 255 with a 9.5 but I'm not sure if that gives you the stretch you're looking for.

wth? you need a need UPS/FedEx guy. lol i thought it was bad when my UPS guy left my DVD player on my doorstep (back when they first came out & they were like $800)

nice b-day gift tho. good luck w/your fitment. i don't think you want to go more than 245 on stock fenders, unless you deform the hell out of them. i see too many cars around w/too much wheel & not enough tire &/or fender (crappy looking ones).
