What width tyres have you guys run on 9" rims?
I have an option to buy some decent Simmons rims with 9" rear width, not ideal, but have any run over 275's without hassle?

I think you may be pushing it to go over that on 9" rims. I have 255s on my Simmons 9" fronts and they sit about perfect.

This is were I look to determine rim vs tire size. Looks like 275 is about the max on a 9 inch rim. Click on the link and select the 2007 catalog. Lots of good information on all type of tires.

I just bought 9" wide wheels that came with 285/30 p-zeros on them. Looking at the inside of the wheel you can tell its a little narrow but so far there have been no issues. When it comes time to replace them I will most likely put 275s.. 285s seem to be much more $ then 275s
