I just put a new pair of 275/60R15's on my truck today after completley destroying my 255/60R15's. I like the look with the 255's up front and the 275's on the back, it is kinda of a "big 'n little" look, although the rear tires are only about an inch taller. They fill up the fenderwells pretty well. However, they did gear up my truck a little bit. I noticed a slight drop in low end performance, since the tires are larger they dropped my already whimpy 3.07 gears down to maybe a 2.95 or so gear....
