Widest tire on a 15x10 rally with 5.5 bs??
 
I am buying new tires for my 82lwb and wanting to get the widest tire possible without rubbing. What are my options?! Thanks!

Are they going to be daily driven? Your only option for a street radial is a 295/50/15 and even those are getting tough to find.

For something driven occasionally, a drag radial will last pretty well and that will really open up your options for tires.

Yeah, I have the 295/50's right now, would like to get a street legal race tire by M/T or Hoosier or something.... Truck only sees 1000 miles a year....

325/50s look great on 10s. But with a 5.5 bs... id want a sample fit before spending any money.

So would a 315/50 most likely fit if the 325 is questionable on the 5.5 backspace?
