245/35 would be your best bet with +30 on a 9.5" plus a 245/35 is cheaper than a 265/30

u can probably run a 265/30 and get away with it if its a +30 and if you roll ur fenders

absolutely no rubbing? 235/35 of course. But you can take your chances on the 245/35. Worse case = shaved + rolled fenders
