275 is the best fit for the size of that rim. But I believe you can slap 245s on there, probably the smallest size you'd be able to fit.

Ive got a set of 17x9 cobra R wheels with 245/45's on the front. Theare not quite wide enough. Have 275/40's on back. They look much better.

HAHA usually its the other way around, people ask the largest tire they can fit on the wheel, not the smallest, but i guess do whatever floats your boat.
