remember that your 8.0" et34 197's with 235 tread rubbed. granted they were a bit taller, but where you're decreasing in height by 4.5mm, you're adding 10.5mm to the width.
Hmm, maybe my memory is off but I thought when I ran 197s, it sat pretty flush, say 1/2" max clearance with the 235/40.

So on 9" width et 30 with 255, I have about 1.2mm clearance strutside, and -6mm on fender side. That's only fifth of an inch... throw in some camber and I would think it fits?
