Default 275/65/18 with no lift?

Hello all,

Anyone know if I can run 275/65/18 on 18x9 wheels with 4.75 inches of backspacing with no lift, spacers or any other mods?

I'm currently running the stock 225/75/16, so it's killing me to have such a small tire on there. I'm ready to pull the trigger on new tires/wheels, but I wanted to know if the size above will work with no lift/spacers.

Well I just put 315/75/16s on my Jeep mounted on 16x8 Summit D Windows with 4 inches of backspace. No other mods and have full turn lock to lock. Now I am not planning on any wheeling until my flat fenders go on.

I just installed 275/65/18 Duratracs on a stock rim with a 1.25" teraflex wheel spacer
I do not have a lift on

Looks pretty sharp and I am fine with my speedo reading
