You will need to do some modifications to make them work. You would also need to stay narrow on the tires to make it work.

You are within spec with the 245 on the 9.5 so it doesn't look bad. There isn't much difference in ride between the 245 and the 255.

So you think a 245 on a 9.5 will not look stretched at all?

So is that pic ^ the 245 on the rear or the 255 on the rear? What brand tire as well?
