Never gonna happen on a stock wheel. Go to the suspension/wheels/tires section. There's a thread with like 50+ pages on wheel/tire combos for the FC.

I do beleive 275 will fit in the rear with a little bit of work and a perfect offset.

Look in the wheels and tires subforum, there's an FC wheel fitment thread, have a look through there. Also search, I remember seeing people have 275's on the back, if you find their threads that'll give you an idea of whether or not this'll work.

...then do it already. Honestly, if you have such better ideas than the rest of us, and know you can fit 325s on the back, then do it. Remember,
