Default Will 275/50/17's fit with a 4/6???

I just bought a set of 17x8 and 17x10 billet specialties and i need to buy tires. I am planning to put a 4/6 drop on the truck so i want to make sure i go with a small enough sidewall to clear but i also dont want it to look like rubber bands. I can get a set of used nitto 450 255/50/17's for the front and 275/50/17's for the rear for a decent price so im wondering if they would clear with the drop or if they would be too big? What brand/size tires do you guys with 17's run with a 4/6 drop???? Let me know. thanks!!

I had the same tire size on my 93 with a 4/6 drop and had no porbs. So you should be ok wiht that size on a NBS.

They will fit, but it will depend on the backspace.
