I've tucked 275's in few Fox bodies with no rubbing on the quads, both 15's and 16's, so you should be OK.

I would go with a 16 x 8 or 16 x 9 min of 5.5" back space..as for the front don't buy those 3.5" one's I have run them for years what PITA.. GO WITH SOME 4" ALEAST OR 5" YOU CAN THEN RUN 78 SERIES TIRE... WITH THE 8" YOU CAN RUN A 50-45 SERIES TIRE AND IT LOOKS GOOD ON THE RIM
