nope, 275 is usually for 9.5" or wider wheels, i believe 162's are 8.5 in the rear, if u do put 275's it will look kinda truckish, correct me if i'm wrong(anybody)

I don't think they'll fit.
the 162's are:
18x8 225 you want to go 245
18x8.5 255 you want to go 275

I suggest you ask our vendors like jlevy or **********s for advice.
