275s Comp TAs will not fit on a 15x7 rim (at least not within safety specs)
Check the pic I posted above.

They are on national back order... BFG doesn't even have any at the factory and do not know when they will start production on them again (if ever... they might be phasing them out). Checked a few local shops (large, small, chain, etc.).. checked tirerack.com, discounttire.com, and a bunch of others... they were all out of stock.

Now there might be a shop somewhere in town that still has some in inventory (that size too... a lot of them had other sizes), but it'd be hit or miss to find them... and my time is worth more than $20 in shipping.

'course if you look at it... the tires were $40 total cheaper than prices I was being quoted locally (until they found out they didn't have them), but I did have to pay $20 to ship... so I'm still ahead by $20.. but then I didn't have to pay sales tax.. so there I'm saving roughly $20 again... back to a $40 savings all together.
