Tire sizes

Is anyone withe thier front lowered running 255/60/15 up front? I'm thinking about putting the 255's up front and running a 275/60/15 Nitto Drag radial in the back. I'm wondering if the 255 up front will rub on anything.

You can run a 255/60 15 with up to 5" of drop in the front. (255/60 15 is a 27" tire, same as a 255/50 17.)
