YES i have them on my rear wheels now. They are copletely fine. Although i would go with something much beefier if i were you. I was given the wheels and tires on them, so i couldn't complain. But i would go with like 295s or 315s if i were you. But 275/40/17 is what im running now on my 10.5" '95Cobra R wheels.

the first was an opinion, the second was a fact. yes, 275s will fit on a 10.5" wheel, but it will be very small, especially if its a kuhmo, they run smaller. i would go w/ AT LEAST a 295

here's a recent thread with some other opinions of 275s on a 10.5" rim. Yes, apparently they will fit, (this is the first Ive heard of anyone actually running 275s on a 10.5") BUT they will be a stretch and your rim will be a little more exposed succeptable to curb rash. Get at least a 295.

I can't post any pics now because its night time, but helty is right, they rim is exposed a little so they are more suseptable to curb rash. Although 1st off, you shouldn't be hitting curbs and secondly, if you're hitting curbs with your REAR wheels, well then you deserve to scuff them up because thats just plain terrible driving!

So i wouldn't worry abou tit, especially if you're only keeping them on for a short time. But as i said, i have them on my car, 555Rs and they are sticky, even though they are small on the wheel 315s would be ideal though!

HAHAHAHAHAHA I see helty made his FOR SALE text larger and more bold! HAHAHAHAHAH

you're telling me. People want you to practically give them the damn things. Ive had serious offers of $125! They're BRAND F'kin NEW!

I have had some decent offers though, $250 by several people. Thing is I dont NEED to sell them, just wondered if I could get a real good offer to minimize the loss. Anyway, dont give them away, someone will make you a respectable offer

well with shipping having to be included, if they offer more than 250 they might as well buy from somewhere else. I know I got my nitto's from discount tire direct for 300 shipped.
