255 tires on 10.5 stretched?

as the title states, will 255 tires stretched on a 10.5 wheel? I thinkin putting Michelin's PSS and i know for a fact they run squared so that might not look to bad. Anyone have this set-up? Just want to see a pic of how will it look.

Mildly stretched. I've run 255 on a 10.5" and it looked a little stretched. But it was a Nitto and they're supposed to run a little small?

A 255/30 will definitely be stretched. Nothing too crazy but the wheel lip will be pokin.

You could get that to stretch onto the wheel pretty easily. I've seen much more aggressive tire stretching than that.

19inch will look little bit more stretched because tyre lower height ratio. Here is 19x10.5 with 255/30/19 (The black E92) http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=930895

Yes it's visible but it's not that bad and Michelin are probably wider. These are Syron race 1+ http://en.syron.eu/tires/passenger-c...n-race-1-plus/. I bet you haven't never heard of them.

I run 255/30 on my 10.5" but they are 20s. And depending on the tires depends on the stretch.
