Re: 275 60 15 tires
Hey fellas.... Figured I'd chime in here since I work at a tire shop.
In the 275/50/15 size you are really limited these days. You are looking at Nitto nt555 Drag radials, and the BFG Drag Radials. Both of em are street legal, and not true drag slicks, but they definetely aren't all season tires by any means. As far as the 275/60/15's go, you've got a few choices that were already mentioned I believe, the BFG t/a's, the Cooper Cobras, and the Goodyear Eagle GT 2's. I have a few old school rat rod customers who swear by those Eagles, they love em'. |

I wouldn't put Goodyears on my mother-in-law's car. I've never had a good set of Goodyears.

Re: 275 60 15 tires
All the Goodyears I've ever had, and anyone I know personally that have had them, couldn't get them to balance out properly, didn't ride well, and made lots of road noise.

Re: 275 60 15 tires
Heres mine, 255 60 R15s up front and 275 60 R 15s on the back mounted on 15x12in rims with stock ride height. The fronts are BFG Radial T/A and the backs are Cordovans. BFG does make a 275 60 R15 too (almost bought them also but the rear tires are still good). They don't make Cordovans anymore though.
