17x9 with 275's with fenders rolled?

I'm having my fenders rolled at roadrace next week. given that, do you guys know if 5zigen f1norc's at 17x9 with toyo 275/40/17 will fit with the eibach lowering springs? Do I need to get 255's instead?

Sorry, I'm cross posting this from wheel fitment guide and I'll use the excuse that I'm concerned about hard-cornering since the only reason I want to run 275's is for the track.

Any thoughts?

Thank you, chrisw, not sure if that means 275 will work or whether you meant I should get 255 instead. But, the response had a nice succinct and postitive feel to it, which I like.

I kind of meant yes, this has been discussed, and you should probably search the confirmed wheel fitment guide in the suspension forum.

I have Kumho 710's, 275/40-17 on my 17x9 5Zigens with no rolled fenders
and only minimal rubbing on the inside of the fronts.
I am running the Tein-Flex coilovers.
