Default Bullitt wheels and 275's ?

I am looking at getting some Bullitt wheels that came off an 03 GT.
I have few questions:
1. Are they 17x8 or 17x9?
2. Any disavanatages of running 275's on the back?
3. What tire sizes are you running?

Currently I have stock 94 GT17inch wheels with 245/45/17 tires.

17x8, and 275's in the rear will be good for traction.

The reason I ask about 275's on those wheels is because the BFG tire website recommends at least a 9" wheel for those tires. Just wondering if that just a recommendadtion or an absolute requirment.

Right, some stock wheels are 9" wide, like mine. Does anybody with stock Bullitt wheels or any 17x8 wheelrun 275's on the back? I would run 245/45/17 up front.
