Front tire suggestions?
I'm sitting at like 4-5" drop in the front right now. I'd do some looking for myself but yea... sorta don't have any fenders
I've got 15X7's on the front, what should I put on it for a tire that will fill up the well nicely? 265/50?, 255/60?, any better suggestions maybe?, anything?

Re: Front tire suggestions?
Little update...
Right now on those wheels I've got a 205/70/15 tire. Is that going to be reasonable looking or should I pull them off and use them elsewhere? If they won't look right I'll pull them and put them to use on my wagon, they're brand new and just setting on the truck....

Re: Front tire suggestions?
With your current motor combo & turbo, I'm assuming you're going for the hot rod, race car, big & little look right? I would go w/some 205-75-15's for the height to fill up the well w/o all the weight associated w/a 255-60 or similar sized tire.
205/75-15 on a 15x6 or 7 (6 would be better). Tall & skinny w/o having to use a front runner.
