Default Tire/Wheel fit
Need help before I have new tires mounted. I just bought 255/85/16 KM2s for my 16x8 wheels and I'm concerned about the tires being bulged out. Anyone running this combo or seen it? What about airing down with a narrow tire and a relatively wide rim?

You're still in the mfg's specs for rim width. You're fine.

Those rims are only .5 or 1" wider than stock, depending on which you started with.
