I have 275/40 tires on 17" wheels all around on my '40. I think your fenders are about the same size ? Lots of clearance on front / tight on rear - maybe 1" from inner fender lip, and 1" from side of box. Sorry - not sure of backset on wheels. I had a local tireshop who specializes in hotrods recommend sizing - they even test mounted a wheel/tire for me to have a look. Wheels are American racing Torquer 2 style.
