275s are .6 taller & 1.5 wider then my stock 235/55s. the wheels are stock 17" bullits. Will the wider tires fit ya think? Thanks

You bet they will! I have 295x45x18s and there are other folk who have 305s and 315s.

What tires are you looking at in 275/50-17? I didn't find any in that size on tirerack.com. I have 275/50-17 M&H Drag Radials (28" dia) mounted on 17x9" replica Bullitts (which according to M&H is the minimum rim width for these tires). Search the web to find the minimum rim width for whatever size tires you are wanting. If the tire company has set the minimum at 17x9" for your tires, and you chose to mount them on 17x8" Bullitts, don't be surprised if they fail to perform at their best for you.

I have 275/40/17 or 26x11.5x17 M/T's on the stock 17x8 rims and they fit great but i wish i would have went a little wider

I have 275-50-17s on my 17x8Ford Polished Bullitts. I have the rear lowered about 3/4 of an inch using Roush rear springs only. There are no clearance issues and no problems with the tires and they have about 3,500 miles on them. There are only 2 tires that are available in this size that I know of they are on Discount Tires website. The approved rim width for both brands are 7.5 to 9.5 which can be found on each tires own website.

275 would not be reccommended on the stock rims.....you are asking for failure and possible a wreck.

-1....I ran my nitto and MT drag radials on my stock 17x8s and they were fine, regardless of the websites telling you to run the 275 width on 9 inch and wider...and I did plenty of track time plus highway...you won't have a problem

I've run 275 BFG DRs on my stock 10-hole 15x7s for the last 5 years without issue.

are we talking for track use only or daily driver....track it wouldnt be that bad but i think for a DD 50-100 miles a day or whatever, 275 on a 8 inch wheel is pushing the limits
