Re: to big of a tire for raylle?
Keep in mind, there are size variations between manufactures. A 275/60/15 BFG runs wider than the equivalent Firestone. I parked my truck next to a friends and we noticed this difference.
I have had a problem with my 275/60's wearing out in the center. I even tried less air pressure but that doesn't seem to help. It's like they want a 9 inch rim.

Re: to big of a tire for raylle?
I used to run 295's on my rallies all the time back in the day we never had any problems mounting them. and I worked in a tire shop and we mounted them for lots of customers with no trouble.

Re: to big of a tire for raylle?
Today I went and bought some tire I got hercules H/P 4000's 295/50.15 in the back and 205/60.15 for the front. I am regretting getting that size for the front they look like space saver spares on the front. I would almost rather run my Big 20 inch wire wheels instead of them now.
