Default 255 30 20 on a 10" rim???

Got rubbing issues like crazy in my rear.. my fender is currently eatin up my tire sidewall.. and im NOT DOING ANY FENDER MODS.....I have an 07 gs350 on tanabe df's n im currently running a 275 30 20 in my rears.... my front seams to be ok... Any one have pics of a 255 30 20 on a 10" rim??? Please post one for me so i can have an idea of how much of a stretch it'll be.... My biggest concerns are that i dont really like the stretch look and that the tire is gonna make me have a gap again after i had already closed it with the drop...

PLEASE POST PICS.... THANKS IN ADVANCE..

Whats your offset on the rear? Would 265/30-20 be an option? That's what i ran on a 20x10 +40 with a DF210 drop on my car without fender mods and didn't have any issues.

255 on a 10'' rim will be a stretch but not too extreme. It will look pretty odd if the rear is stretched and the fronts aren't. I used to run both a 225 & a 245 on my Widebody STI on 10'' wide rims. Tonight I'll see if I can dig up some pics of the 245's to give you an idea.
