Whenever you are thinking about tire size, this is VERY helpful
http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

It will help you figure out all the dimensions of a tire size so you have the side walls match. Just beware that you find that the perfect tire size doesn't exist.

I didn't bother trimming the fender when I had the 255s up front, I thought I could just be careful and not let it rub.... well after a couple years of accidental rubbing, it's now trimmed on it's own.
