Will 275/40 tire fit on FD w stock suspension?

Please do not tell me to search, not many people have stock suspension so its hard to find and plus its taking too long to answer a simple question. Thx!

wheels are 17x10 +35 with 275/40

Will this width of a tire on this rim hit my stock springs in the rear?

Well, I had 305/35/19 on the rear with Tein springs and Tokico shocks if that helps... just a bit of rubbing but nothing getting your fender rolled couldnt take care of...

Are these tires that you already own?

I think they're slightly too wide with that offset. You should also be running a 35 profile on a 275 17", not a 40. I guess since you'll be rolling 4x4 style on a stock sus, you won't have to worry about rolling the fender.

Try a 265/35 instead and you should be alright.
