In the neighborhood, but I never intended to install tires this tall. I was surprised that it cleared the front strut. It rubbed at full steering lock, but not as much as I was expecting. The rear would clearly rub the plastic fender liner (at the 12 o'clock position) over a large bumps.

Given wheel availability, tire size differences and tire/wheel fitment, I'm still leaning toward the 265/9.5 and 285/10.5 on 19" wheels. It's always a compromise between steering feel, front end grip and handling balance. I'm sure I'll do suspension changes, but I'll probably wait until next year.
