I wouldn't use anything larger than 255/40's on the 8's. 275/40s on the 9's.
Any larger than that and the tires will bulge over the wheel edges and will result in sloppy handling.
With the 9's and 275/40s on the rear you'll need to roll fender lips on a Fox.

94-95 cobras came with 255/45/17 onto their 8" wheels
03/04 cobras came with 275/40/17 on their 9" wide wheels
Thats what I would stick with although I have frequently seen guys put 275/40/17 on 17x8 wheels. It bulges and does allow the sidewalk to slightly roll over on itself.
