I need a picture of LWB

I'm looking for a picture of a LWB with original size 15" rims with tire combo of 275/60/15 in front
295/50/15 in rear

I fixing to get some tires and I'm really thinking about this combo but would really like to see what the combo looks like. Alternative is just the 275/60/15 all the way around. Not a daily driver so rotation is not an issue

295/50's are a little wide for a 8" wheel. You will run into center wear issues. 275/60's have a noticeably taller sidewall as well.

That is what I would do on 8" rally's. 275/60's look good.

They are 8" but not rally's . I wanted a bigger looking tire on the back but I always forget that look I am after is with the 10" rims on the back

Re: I need a picture of LWB

What about doing a 255 on the front and a 275 on the rear?
