275s especially MT Radials WILL RUB.

You have to roll the fender wells and good luck, it still might rub. I know mine do.

I ran 275's on a 98 cobra rim on my 88 GT with no issues. Course I had the fenders rolled and had taken a BFH to the inner fender to clear the 28x10.50 MT slicks. Shit I even fit a 295/50/15 back there without rubbing!! Sorry the pics are old

with the 295's
