Dude...

Why would you buy something like this without doing the research.

Questions:
A. What brand / model for tires?
B. What brand / model / width / offset for wheels?
C. What are you trying to accomplish?

Comments:
A. You will take the understeer problem and make it far worse with this setup no matter what the brand. Fantastic for drag, poor for real driving.
B. 265 is very aggressive in the rear. It can fit, but with very careful planning and wheel choice. 275 is viewed as the max without issue.
C. For tire sizes. (1st part / 2nd part - 3rd part)
1st part: Width in mm
2nd part: Ratio for sidewall height. Height = Width x (Ratio) as a percent
3rd part: Inner tire diameter in inches (what diameter rim it was meant for)
