275/60-15 is a 28" tall tire
275/50-15 is 26"

what is your backspace

you will be stepping up in height with the 275/60

on the centerline convo the 275/60 isticks way out by the outer edge of wheel lip due to its 3.75 BS, will need air bags to keep from rubbing
on the telstar 15x8 4"BS they will be under the wheel lip but if your springs are bad or you carry passengers car leans alot on turns they coud rub the inside edge of wheel lip in which case you should run airbags in the springs

I "think" they will be very close to the outside lip.. let us know how they fit .. be careful with passengers in the rear seat
