Please Post Pics of your tires Bigger than 275/60/15 with a 15" Rim Please<<<<<& - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

chevjayfsd · 09-29-2003, 11:20 PM

Anyone with 15" rims and tires bigger than 275/60/15 please post pics. Even if they aren't on our year of trucks. I had it suggested to do a little bigger rubber in the back and did a photoshop of it and it looks baaaaddd!!! Now i just have to get the size. I only have a 10" rim back there so i don't want to see any tires wider than 13" please....

Thanks
Jason

SEVEND2 · 09-30-2003, 03:40 AM

Ill post later, But i am running 15x8's rim with 295/50/15 in rear and 15x7.5 rim in front on 265/60/15's

SEVEND2 · 09-30-2003, 03:51 AM

maybe you can zoom in and lighten it, to see. more pics later

**JIMs70GMC** · 09-30-2003, 04:33 AM

Probably not what you wanted but I had 325/60R15s on 15x10" rims. BFG all terrains. Pics in sig link.

chevjayfsd · 09-30-2003, 08:33 AM

white 68, that is exactly what i was looking for...
Do you have any pics of that tire on a truck?

Thanks
Jason

**raggedjim** · 09-30-2003, 02:08 PM

295/50-15 in the rear, backspacing on the wheel makes it so I can't tuck in the fenders. I'll be selling these six luggers as soon as I can 5lug my truck.

**raggedjim** · 09-30-2003, 02:14 PM

Opps, I forgot to tell you, they are 15 x 10 wheels on the rear.

If you are talking about a wide tire on say a 15X10 wheel for the rear of a 2 wheel drive fleetside...that may be lowered at some point...I think the only choice today is a 295/50 due to the height of the tire....especially if it gets lowered. The other choice is 275/60 which is a bit taller and narrower on the same 10" wide rim. I have 275/60's on 8" wides in the front and 10" wides in the rear.....I too have the same desire to have a wider rear tire but I want to keep the same tire height as the 275/60 in the front. Since BFG did away with the Euro T/A line there are no options for a 305 or 325/50 other than a BFG drag radial. and so I experimented and bought two 345/50/15's....they are/were too big.....too tall and too wide.

Thats my two cents..., pics can be seen here...
