Arrow wheel/tire combo question

I decided to sell the 2010 Camaro wheels and move back to a 15" wheel. I ended up picking up these summit ralleys and Camaro original stainless center caps and rings.

My question is tire size. I got an idea from this thread:
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=420065
He is running 295-50-15's on 8" up front and 10's on back. i'll be just running 8's all around. The other size is 255-60-15's all around.
Thoughts and opinions please!

more or less like the wide beefy tires all around. I like go 295 50's on all for corners but didn't know if anyone done this and had problems. The guy in the thread above did not.

Re: wheel/tire combo question

When I bought my truck the dealer had 15x10 Enkies and 295-50's mounted on all 4 corners, after I brought it home I had it lowered and the trouble started, 295-50's are tooo wide a tire to run up front, trust me you will rub

Re: wheel/tire combo question

I've been liking the look of 275/60 all around. I think a 255/60 and 295/50 would look nice also.
