it'll fit better than most 275's because nitto DR's run narrow. i've run 275 bfg kdws on an 8" wheel and it looked big, but it fit fine.

I have a pic of them mounted on GT rims that are 8" wide. I didnt think they looked bad at all

People will try and tell you they are not taller tho, but when mounted on the rim they are taller, you can see in this pic that I took of the two right next to each other. The taller tire slowed my trap speed down at the track too.
