I had a set of the 15x10 Rally's with a 325/60 BFG Drag Radial on the back of my 77 Blazer for a little while. They took up almost every bit of wheel well. That would probably be a lot bigger than what you are looking for, but I kind of liked it.

No pics. That has been 4-5 years ago. With the drop my Blazer had (about 4/4 IIRC, I bought it that way) the tires looked monstrous.

Re: new tire pics--opinions needed

I have 275/60-15's on Wheel Vintiques 15x10 Chevy Rally's all the way around. It looks good on the front, but the rears do need 325/50-15's on. They're the same height (29 inches) as the 275/60-15's but you can only get them in BFG Drag Radials.

I went to BFG's website a week or two ago and told them I'd buy some Radial TA's in 325/50-15's if they made them and that I'd also like to be able to buy their Drag Radials with raised white letters if they'd make them. I got a response that they'd opened a case on the query and forwarded it to Marketing for consideration.

If anyone else is interested in seeing these made it's a good time to go to their website and voice your opinion.

Re: new tire pics--opinions needed

This is how it looks now.



The Blazers have a narrower rear track width that begs for more tire in the rear to look right. Thus my interest in 325's. The rears look silly, but it's the same 275/60's on 15x10's that are on the front. Some 325's will be just right.
