Question 275/40 on 10" rim???

I just ordered a set of 17" 9/10 10th anniversary wheels and was wondering if my 275/40's will work on the 10" rim till I save up for some 315's. Thanks for your help!!

You aren't going to be able to properly run a 315 on a 10" wheel. It will fit, but not per manufacturers specs. It will be a bit large anyway as a 285~295 is pretty much maxed out for proper fit on a 10".

You can run Nitto 315 DR's on a 9" wheel...

Well I guess I will see how the 275 fits and then go from there. From looking at tire rack and there specs the 285 would be about a 1/2 inch wider.
