this has probaly been asked before, but i have a set od 15x8 rally wheels with 4 " backspace,i would like to run a 235/60/15 in front and a 275/60/15 in the back, will this work, the car has yet to be painted and i haven't got the wheels so rolling the wheel lip is not a problem,i was just wondering if anyone has run these???? some tire places don't like to take tires back after they have been mounted, thanks

the fronts will,the rears are too large,I have the same wheels,but have 255's in the rear,275 are too tall and too wide.I tried them.

I have 275/60/15s at the rear, but I think the rim has a 4 1/2" bs. Look at my signature for a side view of the car. They do go to the well rim, but not enough to look oversized. I didn't cut a thing for this tire.
