Help on fitment

I am running with 19x9.5 et 33 at the rear and i have 265/30/19 so far i have some issues on the tires wearing off at the inner side so my question is would it be advisable if i run 255/30/19 instead?

What do you mean that your "tires are wearing off at the inner side"?

When was the last time you got an alignment? Do you know your alignment specs?

It might be worth digging into that or going ahead and getting another alignment before dropping money on some new tires.

Sounds like your alignment settings may be a little off, your camber in particular. I would definitely recommend getting an alignment done .

why do you wanna stretch the tires?
Is your suspension stock?
ride height stock?
225 might stretch but the 255 def will not stretch.(itll be less meaty then the 265, but honestly the tire wear has nothing to do with your tire sizes, only youu alignement. Get anm alignement and call it a day
