20mm wider/5% lower profile than stock give u better handling in general, and will not through ur speedo out much. So 255 with 9" rim is the way to go imo. Overwidth gives too much camber wear and rolling resistance.

Do not go for streched tyre (265-9.5", 255-9", 245-8.5") unless u wanna drift and tyre has stiff sidewall.
