They'll fit, but it certainly isn't the best size rim. Where did you get 17X8 rims?

They'll tend to look a little fat. Nine inch is really the minimum size for that tire. You can go all the way up to eleven inches. I think you can picture what happens when the rim is too narrow for the tread width and tire section. Of course it's not nearly as bad as mounting a tire on a rim that is too wide.

I actually kinda like that fat look. I just want something on my 17s other than the 255/55s. Something sportier....

Ho ho ho, go put some 275/40's on your six inch rims and then get back to us. We all could use a good laugh.
