Not sure if this combo will work but from researching it appears as though it will. Anybody running a similar combo or see an issue as to why it might not work?

Wheels: 17x8.5 (8 on 6.5" Bolt Pattern) +00mm offset (4 3/4" Backspace)

Tires: 255-70-17

Original Tire Size



+1 size

I don't know.. the front end may cause you some problems. There really isn't much extra clearance at the fenders and maybe the frame for larger tires, I recently put mud guards on my van and the tire actually touches them as it turns, and yes same stock tire size as yours.
