275 but depends on what stock wheel it is. I'm assuming you mean 17s.

the 275's are about as wide as I'd consider on an 8 inch wide 17 inch rim.

This question gets asked every day. No, 275's are not made to go on a 9" rim. Nittos run a little thinner and won't look bad, but any 275 will bulge on an 8" rim, which isn't necessarily ideal if you are into corner carving.
