I considered what Toyo deemed proper, and for 8" wide wheels the correct
tire is a 245 - that's what I chose.  When I researched the 255 issue I read
that a 255 on an 8" wide wheel just lifts the edge of the tread away from
the road.  Yeah, I know they look really cool.

And I believe you'll find that Hap runs a 245.
