Default Sidewall stretch

Hi what's the best tire to used for stretched look like in this pic. This is J4dint's pic. I'm running 9.5 rear and 8.5 front planned on going 235 front and 265 rear. Just need to know which tires have sidewalls that stretch well. i was told some Dunlops and Falkens but no specific model. Any help would be appreciated.

Default Stretched

The stretched look would be like 215/45 and 235/40.

265 on a 9.5 is the proper size (not stretched) FYI
