Need advice on new rim size/offset
there won't be any stretch with a 255 on a 9.5. a 285 on an 11 won't necessarily be a stretch, but it won't protect the rim from curb either.
the front will be nice, it'll be flush with a 5mm spacer to get an idea. the rear will have some poke and needed camber to fit if you're lowered.
it'll look good no doubt. just make sure your fenders are rolled too.

If you want to stretch you're going to want some spacers so the stretch isn't for no reason.
If it were me... I'd go 235/35 and 265/35 (these sizes however depend on the brand of tire you pick)
Then add a 15mm spacer to the rear 20mm spacer to the front lower the car 2.5-3" and let the camber do the rest.

Rusty you can run 245s on the front, that's large enough with your rim size. The 285s will work great out back. I do canyon runs with the same size rims with 245F and 275R without any issues....

I assume your running similar offsets correct? are you at stock camber aswell?

The explain what "tight and fitting" is. Because stretching may be tight but it is my no means fitting.
Not sure what kind of track driving you do but unless you're drifting there is no point to stretch and your track set up should be as much tire on the ground as possible. Bad enough you're tracking 19s.
