Well I would normally say dont go wider than 255's on the 8.5" wheels but I have the same wheels and when I went to buy some Drag Radials I found 275/45/18 in my favorite brand so I gave it a try. They do run and hook fine but I did notice when setting up my tire pressure to get them to put the whole contact patch down I ran 18.2 PSI in the rears. Most of the 255 DR's I end up with about 15 PSI. If I drop the 275's that low they cup and are just as bad as running 30 PSI
