You're maxing out at 255s on 18s, but you have to run some aggressive camber and rolled fenders.

How did the 275's work out on the 8.5's? I don't want to change the wheels because I have a lot of $ in the SSR's and they have only been on the car for about 4 months.

The fit fine on the 8" wheel. The 8.5 will be better the will be a little less pinched.
