275 tire question

[1pdqV6]

If the back spacing is the same you can get 30" wide rims and the gap to the frame will be the same.

If your body is true with the frame and the axle is centered there's a little room there. When I got my stock rims widened I put an extra 1/4" of backspace in. that way the rim only moved out 3/4". On a good dip at speed the sidewall will hit the fender lip. It's worse if I have a bunch of beers, digging tools, and a body or two in the trunk.

I dont have much to add to this except I am going to try the 275/60/15 on a stock GN rim for the back of mine too. I also love the look of a big tire. Mainly I wanted to tell Earl that this made actually LOL , this morning while reading this post, too funny !
