Question What size tire?

I was wondering what size tire everybody is running. I used to have 31 10.50 r15's, and now have 255 65r15's. Nobody at the tire stores can seem to tell me what size tire I am supposed to have. I am wanting to do a drop, sommewhere around the 4/5 area, and I didn't know what size tires to use for that.
Pics would be great.

With my drop, I used 245/60s in the front and 275/60s in the rear. I copied the sizes listed on the stance page of the Early Classic catalog and website where they show examples of lowered trucks.

Yeah, I agree with Tx firefighter, 245/60/15 or 255/60/15 in the front and 275/60/15 in the rear. I went with 255/60/15 all the way around on mine on 15x8 wheels, but the only reason I did that is so that I can still rotate 'em. You might want to consider that too.
