I'm buying new tires and they told me they had 275-55-17HR is this size too big? They look big in person, Im wondering if I'll have any problems.What do you think?by the way my wheels are 17by9.

those are like monster truck tires man............a 55 sidewall is hugeness........if ur gonna go 275 which is a perfect ans widely used size for a 9" wide rim, then go with a 275/40/17 size tire............trust me you will be a lot happier....

Yeah, a 275/55 will throw off your odometer and speedo as well. It will also make your car higher geared.
