Re: 275 50 -15 Question
Who has 275/50/15 tires? As of late, it is getting hard to find certain sizes of any large 15 inch tires in my area. The 295/50/15s are all but gone from the suppliers and "MAYBE" the manufacturers will make more after the first of the year. The 275/60/15 tires are around, but their stock is getting shorter also.

275/60/15's better not stop being made. Thats the best looking tire i've found for a 15x8 rim. I'd really hate to have to get a set of 17's.

Scary, isn't it. Things are changing and the 15" rim size world is slowly fading into the "PAST". Oh, by the way--spme companies are killing off some of the 17" sizes; also. Looks like that 18, 19 and 20 inch world is the cause. |

If you go with a 4" drop in front it will hit the inner fenders on large bumps. It isn't bad I ran mine that way for 6 years.
