No way in hell id put a 275 on a stock wheel.

Are you sure you are not confusing it with something else? the wheels in your sig on not stock

They don't rub like crazy on the front? That is wide of a tire for the width of that rim.

That's gotta be goofy with a wider tire in the front. You can safely mount 255's on a 16x8. I wouldn't go any wider.

Are you sure you're reading it right? Why would anyone put the wider tires in the front anyway? Something awry here.
