The Goodyears will fit on a 10.5 inch rim as goodyear lists the approved rim width from 9-11 inches. As far as rub, I dont think they will because the tire is still small enough but each car is different. I would try to find someone who has the 17x10.5 rim and the 275 tire and see if there is a rub problem. I have heard no problems with 18 inches and if you lower the car with springs, no rub problems with the 17's but you will have a rub issue on larger tires if you DO NOT lower the car (seems counter-intuitive).
