That tire diameter is 31.8” according to Tire Rack. They also say that size is for 7.5-9.5 inch rims. My local Firestone tire shop wouldn’t do that installation (for insurance reasons).
I was able to run a 32.1” tire (255/75r17) with a daystar spacer lift (2.5”/1.5”) and 1.25” spidertrax spacers. I only had to move the fender liners forward in front of the front wheels, and all four of my springs were old and sagging. I can’t say from experience how your 275 tires will work width-wise, but the diameter shouldn’t be an issue. My guess is that a 2.5/1.5 lift would eliminate your rubbing. If you’re still on your original springs, they probably need replacing. I gained about an inch all around with new springs.
Many owners on this forum have rubbing issues with wheel spacers, but not enough lift.
