Another Wheel Tire fitment question

[Buick Beginner]

Gentlemen,
Did a search and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for, here goes: Can you get away with a 15x8 aluminum rim that has a 3.250 BS running a Nitto 275-60-15 DR tire? What do you think? - BB
P.S. No I can't afford them now, but it's a good time to do homework. - BB

4" BS is perfect with that tire/wheel combo.

3.25" puts the tire 3/4" closer to the wheel well trim than it has to be. Contact is likely.

i have used american racing outlaws rims 15x8 with 3 3/4 bs with those tires. workes perfect. also had 15x8.5 convo pros with 3 3/8 bs, they stick out a tad more but i have a real good suspension.
