With this setup you will have same tire height front and rear and equal stretch with out too much stretch.
I would not go for geeznuts setup unless you want a taller rear tire. Not to mention the rear tire size is oversized
He said he didnt want a crazy stretch. So with that said, I recomended the other specs. We got 10.5s he got 11 and depending on the brand he is using it might look different. Heres my 20x10.5 with 255/30/20 nankang

and 245/35/20 on 10.5 rear & 245/30/20 on 10 front

sorry for the crappy pics

255/30 is not that crazy of a stretch, but I suppose he can bump it to a 265/30 or a 275/30 for a very minor stretch.

again, buy tires with the intention that the shop will fit the fender around them. Buy the size you feel comfortable with
