275/60/15's - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Select · 08-30-2007, 06:21 PM

I am in need of tires pretty badly. The 295/50/15 BF Goodies that are on there right now were made in 97 and it shows, that and playing with the 4.11 posi doesn't help much either. I was wondering if anyone has a pic of a stepper on 15X10's with 275/60/15's mounted to them. That and what brand are you running. I got a quote from a little hole in the wall place here on some Uniroyals for $402 out the door. I have a few buddies that work at Discount Tire and I could get a better price there but I forget the name of the tire. Would I still be able to run my 3-4 springs that I got with the 68 with the 275/60/15's? Thanks in advance....Mikey

plenty of room for that size in the rear, i,d go one size smaller in front with 8" rims

They should fit fine. I've seen lower trucks with that combo that still cleared everything.

I've Got 275/60/15 Toyo Proxes ST's And They Have Been The Best Tire I've EVER Bought. I Paid $103 A Tire ( Plus Mount And Balance, Tire Disposal, And Taxes ). I've Mounted Them On 8.5 Inch Wheels. They Look Great, Fill The Wheel Wells, And Grip Like Mad. I've Got A 2/4 Drop On My Truck And Have No Rubs.

I have 275/60/15 on 8 inches, they fit just fine. BFG's here, they are awesome.

Cost me $102 plus tax. That includes mounting, balancing, roadhazard, flat and balancing for life. I got them at Sam's Club, can't beat their prices.

I know I don't have a step but I do have 275/60/15 on 15x11 wheels on my long box with lots of drop so you should be fine .

neonlarry · 08-30-2007, 09:00 PM

I have 275/60/15's on 10' rims and the rims are a little too wide for the 275's in my opinion. I plan on using 295's out back and getting some narrower rims for the front for the 275's.

Thanks for the pics everyone. It gives me a good idea of what it'll look like when I go to buy my tires....Mikey

st1x10, nice late model bed! I am about to do the same thing... I will be putting 275/60's all the way around also, they are the perfect tire IMO...

I pondered the same question and I got some good pics on my thread under Suspension category. I believe its Drop springs? I was given a great pic of step with that exact tire size and a 4/6 drop...LOOKS GREAT if you can't find it search threads started under my name...its very recent.
