right now I have 235/50r18 if I lower the profile and widen the tire with the right wheel I think It would clear and not rub

That's over 1.5" wider than stock, on the stock rim. I think that's a bit much. And at that point, the 275 would sit almost 0.8" closer to the strut so I'd worry more about rubbing the actual strut.

I wouldn't put that wide of a tire on the stock width rim.
