Hey, couldn't you flip upside down the quad to clear the 275? We cobras did this.

Anyway, I put on a Cooper Zeon 275/40 and it didn't have the sidewall buldge my old Dunlops did. So I actually could have went wider with the same clearance.

I used a Cooper 245/45 front and the rim and tire are flush. Wheras again the Dumlop stuck out some.

Maybe something to consider.
