What is your exact year, make and model and what sizes are your wheels, diameter and width?

I have 275 on 8.5" firehawk rim up front on a spare set of rims and was told that is a little wide for the width of the rim, they also tend to track in grooves of worn roads so I would say 245 is a good choice for the front which is what I have on OEM C6 rims on 8.5" fronts on my other, other spares!

I wouldn't recommend running anything wider than a 255. If you run a 16" assembly, the 255/50-16 would be a good option.
