Default Wider tires

Hello everyone. I currently have a RRC LWB that has 205/80/R16 on it. Two of the four tires are cracked and need to be replaced. I am thinking of replacing the entire 4 tires with Michelin 255/65/R16 but I'm afraid of the wider tires rubbing when making turns. Does anyone have these tire sizes on their rover, and can you share the experience of advice on what to do before I purchase them. Do I need to modify anything?
Any response would be greatly appreciated.

You will need a 2" lift to handle those tires.
