Will this fit?

I am uprgrading from the stock 235/70/16 to a 17in wheel. Im looking at some Kumho Ecsta STX 275/60/17. Ive used tire size calculators and other forums to find max size possible. So far Ive seen 265/70/16. Should the 275's fit? (with minor trimming if needed)
 






I am hoping to put these on tomorrow. Any input?

How wide is the wheel the tire will be mounted to?
 






Put them on yesterday. They look amazing. Ill try to get some pictures soon. Only issue was the center bore on the wheel wasnt large enough to clear the hub. Then with 7/16" spacers the dustcap on the front hub sticks out about 1/4 too far and wont allow me to put on the wheels center cap. I ordered some 1.25" wheel spacers to solve the problem.
 






Any pics yet?
