How aggressive does he want ? Does he plan to roll fenders ? Does he want to run stretched tires ?

Need to know these things, cause without rolling the standard 275/40 rear tire will start to rub with only a 5mm spacer. The front will start to rub shortly after a 5mm spacer with a 255/40 tire installed.

^ I don't think he'd rub with 275s in the rear for a 9.5 +20 rim. I'm running 285s on a 19x10.5 +23.

The fronts might rub a little if you run 275s up there though IMO
