No problem with any clearances ...as I have just fitted 275/65 R17 Michelins to my 2009 LWB GLS which came with 265/65 R17,s..... and in comparing the inflated tyres on rims side by side, the 275/65 was +-15mm wider at the widest part of the tyre than the 265/65 ..... & surprisingly, the tread width was marginaly wider .. and the height of the tyre was +- 5 to 7 mm higher and I have not discerned any reduction in performance ... hope it answers your question ....Duncan 072 355 9300
