Default tire size research!!!

hey guy's. i bought a set of wheel's for my C-5.they are front's 17"by 9.5 and the rear are 18"by 9.5 i was thinking 275/40/17 in the front and 275/40/10 or 285/40/18.the 275's call for a 9-11" rim.and the 285 call's for a 10-11" rim. my question's are,will the 275 40 17 on a 9.5 rim be to big on the front,and will the 285 40 on a 9.5 fit and work on the back.also i forgot,the rim's are Z 06 REPRODUCTION SO THE OFFSET ON ALL FOUR ARE 56MM.THANK'S ....AL.
