or go down to a 275/30/20. Shorter tire gives you a little more clearance under full compression but narrower is the better choice and guaranteed fix.

a 255/35 would be a very small stretch to the point you would barely be able to notice. Not only that but you would get a little more clearance from the slight stretch too. A 265 will fit with no stretch at all but without pics, its hard to say how much more clearance you need to fit.
