Hawker7,... If you plan on running a 2.5" drop spindle,... a 4.5 backspace on a
15" rim will be a problem. (the inside edge of the wheel will contact the spindle in the lower ball joint area) People with 4" backspace even have this problem. On a bigger diameter rim it would be ok. (17" thru 20" wheels)
I just think a 275/60 will stick outside the fenders on a lowered truck, and cause rubbing issues. On a stock height truck they will be fine. Remember. The front "track width" on these trucks is wider than the rear track width.
My personal preference is a 7" or 8" wheel up front and a 9.5" or 10" wheel in the rear. It compensates for the different track width. (just my opinion)
