Can I run 265/30/20 in the front

Alright tire/offset people.. I need help
I've got a set of 20x10.5 wheels all around.. In the front I am at +10 in the rear +15(with spacers)

I tried some sumitomo htr Z III tires.. 255/35/20 up front and 285/30/20 rear..

Well never actually put them on the car, as the 255 was too stretched. I'm not a huge fan of super stretched tires(little stretch isn't bad) Anyhow my tire shop(seem to have known what they are doing in the past) just can't get it to stretch..

So... I'm low on options.. There's no way a 285 will work in the front, and I doubt a 275 will... So I'm looking at a 265..

I'm thinking about trying a 265/30/20 front +10 and 295?/30/20 rear +15 Can it work?
My rear fenders are rolled btw and I'm lowered about an inch all around, running a couple degrees -camber

Any pics if someone is running something similar?

If they can't mount a 255/35 on a 10.5 you need a new tire shop. They do NOT know what they are doing. I now those sumis and they stretch easily. 255 is not a big stretch....

265/30 is way more stretch than 255/35 so if they can't mount the 255 they definitely won't seat the 265.

Go to a new shop.

Lots of companies make them, I believe Toyo, general and federal all make them.
