15x8 street tire size options - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Help please.

I have been trying to determine what size 50 or 60 series tires will fit on my 15x8 aluminum wheels. The 275/60/15's on there now (all the way around) were "OK" before I dropped it, and they are still actually OK in the rear...but the front, it has to change.

My Summit catalogue seems to indicate that a 225/60 is the smallest appropraiet size. I'm not sure what my 50 series options are. Went to a tire store today, got one answer. Went to a parts store tha sells/installs tires and got another (3rd) answer.

More confused now than I was before!
