Stock 17 gt rims

I just bought a set and the tires on them are 275/40 rear and 245/45 front. They are nexxen brand. is this what came on them or did the guy put bigger ones on. How big should I go when putting new tires on.

I thought all of the OE 17" wheels were 17 x 8. If so, that 275 on the back is unsafe. 255's are as wide as recommended by tire manufacturer specs. A 275/40/17 requires a 9.0" or 9.5" rim, minimum.
