Tire recommendations for 15x6
Hey guys. I will be running the stock 15x6 wheels with P01 hubcaps. Stock height with new springs. What do you recommend for tires? I was looking at the STA 7-15’s but, worried they may look too small. Was also considering the BFG’s but, worried the 33x10.50’s are a bit too big for my wheels. I know people have ran them but, are there any other options for a knobby tall skinny looking tire?
Here is the link to the STA’s https://www.jegs.com/i/Coker+Tire/25...SABEgKpMfD_BwE

Re: Tire recommendations for 15x6
I have 32 x 11.50 BFG's. Not too big, not too small. (not sure if I have 15 x 6 though).

Re: Tire recommendations for 15x6
I’m leaning toward the 33x10.50’s as I want to stay as skinny as possible. Just wish they had some a bit smaller diameter. The STA tires I posted are a bit too small I think.
