anyway, that pic doesnt look right. 285 should fit MORE than fine on a 10.5 rim. in fact...stock sport wheels are 275 on a 10.5 rim. that rim must be 11" wide, or hes not running 285.

OP: if you have a nismo (which it looks like you do), depending on your suspension, i would not go 285 on the front wheels. im running 265/35 on the fronts and lowered about an inch from stock all around. i rub on dips, whereas i didnt used to rub ever on the stock 245/40 front. our nismo bumper unfortunately doesnt allow as wide of tires as the non-nismo guys.
Agreed... I have a 275 on a 10.5 wide rim right now and you definitely don't see too much stretch at ALL. 285 can only be better than that, unless it really depends on the tire as well.
