That is all determand by rim width and clearance. Rim width is the major factor. An 8 to 9.5 wide wheels can run 275, an 8 wide can run 225 to 275. a 10 wide can run a 315. How wide are the rims?

same ones i had on mine

245/45-17
285/35-18

both are same overall diameter and won't trip off the ABS and are the same factory diameter and won't need a speedo correction.
