275's on the rear are just fine. It is OKAY. Sorry Jazzer for disagreeing with you... I ran 275 BFGoodrich Drag Radials for years on my Cobra, on the stock rims, before I was really fast. Now I'm on 10.5 in wide rear rims with 315's...

^ I didn't say they wouldn't fit, just that it is not an approved width for an 8" wheel.

... it is not!

PS: disagreement is just fine

Sounds to me like you want to bump some knuckles? lol

Naaaa

I just find too much info gets flying around in the forums and just want people to know what they are getting into.

A 275 is not horrible fit on an 8" wheel, but just like to see that information given as factual is accurate. I have no problem with those that go outside of manufacturers recommendations and knowing he/she is doing so. But, to tell someone to do so is fine and NOT telling them it is not approved, is a dis-service to anyone reading such a post.

^ I go by experience. Not by some "manufacturers" specs, as they are under rated for liability issues. It is FINE.
