I just ordered a set of the Summit Racing (Draglite) knock offs. The sizes I ordered are 15X8 for the rear with a 4.5 inch backspacing. I am going to run a 235-60-15 on those.

The fronts are 15X4 with a 1.5 inch back spacing. What tire size would you guys run on these to keep the right stance?

Also, will I have any probs with the back spacing?

Thanks,
Joey;)
 
With a 235/60/15 you won't have any problems at all with the 4.5 backspace. 275/50/15 will rub the frame. For the fronts, just run the 165R15 whatever brand you can find. They are about $40. Unfortunately they always look kind of flat, but the only other choice you have with that narrow of a rim is the MT Sportsman 26x7.5. I had those and hated them on the street... car seemed to have a mind of its own. I got the 165R15's and rides much better, but they are about 1 inch shorter than stock height.
