If all 4 are 8 inch wheels, obviously you cannot put 315s on the back. I've always felt 275s on the front is too wide. If you can fit 275s all around and you like it, go for it.

i would go 245 front. 275 back. have fun fitting 275 on an 8 inch wheel. that will be one tight squeeze. get a 17x9 wheel and it will be perfect for 275

i run 275 in front with 17x9 wheel and 315 on back with 17x10.5 wheel. they all fit and look good without making it too painful to get the tires to fit.
