Shldnt have any problems. That tire would be the equivalent to a 33x11-17. I'm assuming on stock jk rims. It might rub a little at full lock position but not bad. I'd add some hub centric spacers, give a slot better look and ride imo.

What tire did you find in 275/75-17?I see 275/70-17 quite often but I have not run across a 275/75-17. The 275/70-17 would require nothing to run and in fact is perhaps a tad shorter than the 255/75-17
