Default HELP!! Sorry, quick wheel fitment question...

Hey Guys, I know everyone hates wheel fitment questions, but i need to be sure so here goes....

can i use a 9.5" wheel with 40 offset in the rear? Using the stock 255 tire, would there be a lot of stetching? would i need to roll my fenders? If i were to go with say a 265 or 275 would i need to roll the fenders? any inpute would be great. thanks everyone for your help.

you should be fine with that. a 255 on a 9.5" isnt really a stretch.

Thats a conservative fitment it seems.
You can use this car as a base:

i would say this fitment with 275 tire may need rollin/shaving.. 255 may be a little stretch on 9.5 but not too bad..
