Depending on the tire they work fine.
Here is the only current shot I have of my 275/40/17 Nitto 555 street tires on the 8.5 " rim. Work fine on the street and this pic is a 1.91 60'

I have had a some of those tires (GY GS-D3) on for about a year now..a pretty good tire..I had some Yokohama AVS Sports that I liked better...they had good grip and they wear a lot better than the GY..they cost more but you always get what you pay for..especially in tires..
..neither one was worth a crap on the dragstrip but no street tires are...
