I was thinking 215/40 and 255/40,
If any of you guys have these size rims with close or the exact tire measurement please post a picture, I would hate to pay up 500$ for these tires and not like the outcome, or too much stretch thanks guys.

Just curious why the huge difference in size from front to rear? The 255 should fit well but I don't particularly like the stretch thing so I can't really say how well those sizes will look.

Rimtuck.com my friend. Damn near every tire/wheel size combo youd ever want to see.

Theres your fronts. I'd say thats a solid stretch, nothing completely impossible to mount or ridiculous looking.
Rears, you might want to rethink that 255... this is a 295 on that width. A 255 will be straight ridiculous.

For at least some point of reference, heres a 235/40 on an 11. A bit less stretch than a 255 on a 12.5, but still pretty agressive at that point. If i were you, unless you want to be a bit of a goon i wouldn't venture less than 285 or 275's. but thats my taste
