And a question about wheels.

I remember back in the day when I'd buy tires that I'd go 10mm wider than what was called for. If it's a 245 tire go with 255.

Is there a reason this has changed? Having a slightly wider tire than the wheel meant no road rash on wheels. Sure some scuffed up tires but it's far easier to clean a mildly scuffed tire than repairing a curbed wheel.
You technically can still do this. You may get a slight tire buldge, but going 10mm is hardly noticeable.
