You can safely run a 275 width tire on the stock 17" x 9" rim. There is no reason to go to a 285 because you won't get better traction, but a 285 will fit as well.

I can't go much wider than 225 on that WIDE of a wheel, regardless of it's 17" diameter. My 17x11" rear ZR1 wheels have 315s. THAT is how your question doesn't make sense. Do a search and I'm sure you'll figure it out.
