Default 275s on 17x8?????

i know you can fit a 275 on a 17x8 with a bulge, but would this take away from the traction, or mess up the wheels or tires???

cool,
i was planning on going 245 in front and 275 in rear and figured i would just buy a set of four 17x8 bullits because i can get them for really cheap, but if there was going to be problems with traction, tires, and/or the wheels then i was going to go ahead and get 17x9 wheels for the rear.

275 will bulge a little bit andyou will have some sidewall flex around corners and stuff but it will work...
