Not sure, standard 2016 WN Caprice V wheels, maybe 9 inches

So WN-II?
Yeah those wheels (as per the ones you photographed) are 19x8.5, stock tyres are 245/40x19 (same as fronts on a Redline or all-round on an SS-V) ... checking back at the reason for the question, you're looking at 295mm tread-width tyres on a 216mm wide rim, that's 4cm of extra width on either side of the wheel & that extra width is only spread over the height of a 30-series tyre ... sorry, but I reckon that's going to feel awful & will "walk" all over the joint as you drive.

Cheers thanks for that, I still may try it as I have the tires

yeah 255 is the recommended max width for a 8.5 rim i believe. 295 is max for a 10.5 rim.
cheers

295’s on an 8.5 rim

295 v 245 20 but the 245 is sitting flat on both edges, so I feel I have a bit to play with, thank you for replies

Are you fitting the tyres to the rims yourself?

I asked the original question because I felt you may have been fitting the 295 to OEM rims and as it falls so far outside the recommend fitment guidelines it will possibly be hard to find a reputable fitter who'll do it for you.

Ok sorry, no I was going to take them to my local tire fitter. I have some 19x9 b XHP blades that I can use as a backup if they refuse to fit them. Thank you for your reply

Oh ok then.

Here's a 295 on a 10.5" and fits well. They'll squeeze onto a 10" but that's likely a bit on the edge.
