Default Toyo Tires Help

Alright guys I need some help. I was offered a sponsorship with Toyo Tires and I'm wondering if I can achieve my current setup with their tires. How well do they stretch in comparison to Hankook V2 tires? In order to achieve my fender-to-lip setup, I'm currently running a 255/35/19 on a 12 in the rear. My fronts are 235/35/19 on a 10.







Any help is greatly appreciated!

for the front you need a tread width of 8" and the rear 8.7" to be exact.

*Same sizes. Toyo's are wider in all variations of their tires size for size.

Toyos run slightly wider than Hankooks (same tire size). My Toyo R888 look a little bit beefier than my Hankook RS3. This is the same wheel, same tire size. I don't know how well they stretch though, considering I'm running a 265 on 9.5" front and 305 on 10.5" rear.
