I run 17x9 wheels w/ 275/40-17's. They clear fine with approx 5.5"BS & lowered 1.5"
285's also clear, but any larger you need to get the offset perfect.
Planning on 315's but even w/ max backspace they may be an issue with the fender lip... unless you run a baby 315, like a Sumitomo, which is a glorified 285.
Here is a picture of V710's in 315 width.
