ok, there is no rubbing or anything with the 275, anyways thanks guys.

Edit: I just bought a tire and wheels package so that why they come with 275 on each of them, cant wait to put them on the car.

I've been reading on these tires, am I going to get less traction from these tires then the stock good-years, or maybe about the same ??
