Per MT they fit the wheel. But they are a tall tire . . .

Yeah they will fit. They are 27.2 compared to the stock 25.7 so your going to be gaining about 1.5" of tire. Might think about that before getting them.

They fit. I have them on my car, on a 17x9 10-spoke SS wheels. They are without a doubt taller (which is why I bought them) but they honestly look barely wider than my 275/40s up front. They do not bulge on the wheel at all.
