Tires to fit a 10" wide rim?

[rangerbum]

Hey, I just got a set of Cooper Cobra's in 295/50R15 in back, 245/60R15 up front. I only had them on for 2 days because of the winter storm was headed in, but they are sweet. Sticky, handle crazy good. I have found a few that have sizes in 295/50R15, Cooper Cobra, Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS, BFG Radial T/A; and If youve got a Les Schwab tire center nearby Grand Prix GT(which are crap). hope this helps

Well done weedhopper..

Im in the middle of my own experiment with 10" wheels that you all might find interesting. Im using a set of wheels with 5" backspacing. Im hoping to use 31/12.50/15 tires without any lift other than torsionbar adjustments. For what you are doing tho, the extra backspaced wheels might give you the look you want without the front fender clearance problems.

A good place to start, then pick your own backspacing...

Note that use of Aero (or other stock car wheels) will need to address the 5/8" studholes (see "Howe Racing 2081") and know that they are not DOT approved for highway use (whatever that means).

I was interested in the findings till I saw this is a five year old thread. 15" tires are getting hard to find in many sizes'

Dang Mac you beat me to it. Don't care about the findings but as you said it's a 5 year old thread. DangerRangerCj, you already had a thread about this started a week ago. Why dig up old threads, especially ones this old.

Heres some pics of mine with 275/60/15 on 8" wheels. I believe you could put them on 10" without alot of trouble. Note that mine is 4wd of course.

What are those steelies off of? I wants a set bad
