You sure you don't have your tire sizes flipped?

Either way, I think a 10.5 +27 wheel with a 275 tire is gonna need fender mods.

you might have to run stretched tires...but i'm no pro. those offsets are pretty aggressive

you'll need smaller tires. 275 and 245 are too much if you don't want them rubbing on the fenders.
