Then again in running 275/345 so I err on the side of "I can't stand stretch!"

Really I'm only trying to illustrate that 245/285 is going to be ricodulcoursly stretched in those rims. With +10 rear you may not want to go all the way to 325 but 305 for sure.

When he says ridiculously stretched, that's his valuation.

I qualified that right away.

And I was originally planning 325's but somewhere between that decision and purchase time they became unavailable, so it was either go up or go down. I actually mounted a set of 305 drag radials on my rims and the fit was ok (they run wide) but I would have needed a 10-15mm spacer at least. So it made sense to spend $0.00 and go up to 345 instead of $150 for spacers. Especially as I'm looking for the dig.

I think he's well on his way to the larger side of conservative, and that's probably perfect.
