Default Tire question

After christmas I plan on ordering a set of bullitts for my 67. I have decided 17x8 in the front, but still unsure on the rear I really want 10.5. So my quesiton is will a 315/35ZR17 fit on a 67 mustang or is that tire too wide? If so should I just drop down to 275 or is that too small for a 10.5 wheel?

I recently bought bullitt's from american muscle.com. 17x8 with 245/45-17 up front, and 17x9 with 275/40 - 17 in back. I've been meaning to post pics, so lets see if this works. They fit perfectly, just even with the lip of the wheel well. No contact with any part of the body as far as I can tell. Had to use 1.25 inch spacers up fromt and 1.5 inch in the rear. Still have the factory drum brakes all around. Hopefully this helps.
