They will physically fit....but not best use on a 9in wheel. 9 1/2 or a 10in would be best.

This is correct. I'm hesitant to push the limits with a 285 on the stock brembos personally... Although that would make my new tire problem a lot easier.

Will 275/35/ fit well on the stock brembo rims? Any reason only 275/40 has been mentioned?

According to the tire rack,they will fit the rears only with no problem but will rub the fronts.
