ok si ive seen numerous questions on 17 and 18 inch wheels but on my 96 gt i have the greg welds 15x10 with i think 6.5 backspacing i use to run BFG radials 275/50-15's... well NOBODY makes that size anymore unless its a drag radial / slick and i wanna take my Et streets off cause they obviously suck in the rain and this is gonna be my everyday car for a few months... anyway you guys with 15's what do your guys run with your 15's? 275/60-15 has too high of a sidewall for my liking and the next closest size i can find is 295/50-15... any suggestions?

Yep, BFG Comp T/A's. My dad has them on his Chevelle and loves them. He has been running them in different sizes since he first built the car in 1988. I guess it's a tried and proven tire.

Every website like jeggs and summit have responded telling me bfg has stopped making that size in a street tire and only make them in a soft compound drag radial
