Will a 275/60/15 squeeze in OK with a 15x8 rallye with 3 7/8" BS?

Corvette rallye? Seems that a lot of people on this site are running that tire. Probably go that route after I burn the tread off the 255's.
I used to live in Belton back in the day......late 70's to early 80's.
Glad I survived it.....LOL

Most guys seem to post they are using a 15/8 with 4.5" BS for the 275

I just remeasured, which was done from the outer backside of the rim edge dropped down to the nearest part of the lug pattern, and it actually appears to be 4".

I just don't want to get into a tire that won't tuck in nicely, but I want a chunky tire on the rear.
