Your tire sizes really depend upon your tire brand, offests, ride height and camber. If you don't need to stretch to gain clearance then no reason to do so at all. A good stretch on a 8.5 is gonna be a 215/35. I have a 225/35 and its tiny bit of stretch. 245 won't be any stretch for a 9.5. 235/35 is a mild stretch, that is what I'm currently running on my 9.5.

Pics below for reference.

Heres the Coverage from the meet. In our section it wasn't all that except for the state of stance booth but all the good stanced cars were up front. We showed up early but late in a sense.

They sold out of those shirts a while ago. Gotta jump on them right away when they first are released.
