Well if your car is not dropped then you should be able to put them on, but at the sametime you really need to find out your offset. I have my car lowered 1.2 in the front and 0.9 in the rear, and my offsets are +20 and +25, and that is considered agressive. I need to put a 5mm spacer in the rear to give it that little more agressive look. If I went with 20's I would still be in good shape, so if you don't have your car dropped then you are fine. In my honest opinion if you do drop your car. Go with an offset around +20 and +25, and add spacers if you want to get what you want.

i will take the rim to a shop to have the offset measured. ill will just go with the 265 in the front then. the rear tire looks to inserted in the fender and kinda ugly. so i will definitely need some 20mm im selling (1 1/4 in) if anyone wants them or trade for some stuff.

You can easily fit a 275 on a 9" wheel up front with a +20 offset, whether you're lowered or not.

It would look perfectly fine with a 275/30/20 up front.
