Well youre running stock wheels. Stock wheels i wouldnt go any higher than 245/45-17. Some people put 275's on the back but thats just for drag racing. You did what youre supposed to.

if you can find that size, go for it. 315's will work but you will need to roll the fenders...which i suggest that you do anyways. So just go for the 315's. For the front on a 9 inch wide wheel, go with a 275/35. That will look best.
