More stretch means a narrower tire on the rim so it doesn't come into contact with your fender. Generally, you wouldn't want to stretch more then you have to if you have enough tire/fender clearance. So from my understanding, a 255 will work perfectly fine for what you're looking for. It'll give you enough clearance to add a spacer for that flush fitment. I hope I helped out

Yea that was good stuff! What is the rim size/width in the pic posted? Looks to be a relatively mild stretch.

I like the idea of the wider tires so I can get more sidewall between my rim and the road. Are there clearance issues when bumping up to a 9.5 and 10.5 wheel? I suppose doing that though would lower the offset resulting in less concavity?
