Honestly if it were me I would sell the wheels and get the right fitment, probably would shoot some messages to whoever recommended the wheel and hope they would try to make it right. Even with 265s you might rub, and at 265 on a 10" wheel youre stretching the tire big time. FWIW im running 275 michelin PSS in the rear, which are a bit more square shouldered than the DW, on an et43 and could maybe run as much as a 295 without rubbing on sport suspension. Its not as flush as you might want it, personally I prefer more tire vs more flush, but you could always run a 5mm spacer to fit. If you look at the pictures your rub is practically all the way down to the wheel, I dont see a skinnier tire making much difference in that case. Either way, I know how much rubbing sucks and hope whatever you decide works out.
