You can go to a 295 rear but IMO it doesnt gain you a ton and since all trucks are made differently a 275 should be safer from rubbing. Also depends on if you have the wide or narrow rear end. Those specs are for the wide rear later model trucks. Hope this helps.
I have a 72 so yes its the wide rear end. I also have gotten the same B.S. numbers on the wheels. Just seeing if anyone has done this.
