I know there is a thread about people doing it will the RX330/350 but I am worried that the increased diameter may affect the hybrid system and / or warranty.

The mpg will go down, but I highly doubt it will affect the hybrid system in anyway.

Any reason for the 255's? Snow conditions or just the wider stance?

Wider stance, and I already have them because they came off my Range Rover stock wheels which I don't use.
