Default Help me with Some C5 Rims Please

I wanted to buy some 17" C5 Rims that are a 17 x 8.5. I have 275 40 17 fuzion zri's on my Chrome Firehawk rims. I really like these rims but it doesnt seem that I can fit these tires on these rims. Is that correct? My 17 Rims now are 9" i beleive. I have tried searching but the search keeps coming up with no results. Never had that issue before?

Thanks in advance.

9" rim is the smallest wheel for a 275 . . .

For the 8.5" wheel you'd need to run a 245/45ZR17.

That kinda sucks, No I need to find some decent 9" replacement rims for a decent price. Thanks for the help.

Really? You dont by any chance have a link or a place to look do you? Ebay only has 17 X 8.5.

Thanks.
