Don't think you'd run a 255 on a 17 lol, that would just be rediculous.
Prob wants the widest wheel/tire combination possible.
I think 9 is the widest of seen as of late.

Yeah thats what i thought but wanted to confirm this isnt a crazy thread trying to fit a fat tire on 7 inch wheel lol
But runming a 275 tire on the back is still crazy. I think you could go up to 255 using a 9.5 wide wheel all around but you still will have to pull the fenders out. (The front ones more) And its a front wheel drive car so it doesnt make sense to run wider tires on back. If you are really doing this just run the same size all around and put more power to the car. Well thats my opinion and im running 8.5 wide wheels all around and attempting to install 9.5 wheels all around because i still have more space with the 8.5 ones
