Does anyone have any pics of 275's on 17X8's? I want to be runing a wider tire and if I can get away with using my stock rims then that would be great. I want to do it reliably too, i'm afraid it might buldge out too much.

If you can do 275's with an 8inch rim, what is the max you can o with a 9? I heard 285 but that doesn't seem right if you can mount even a 275 on an 8.


Thanks
