a 275/50/15 in the rear would be 25.8 inches tall and the same width as well.

i paid 80 for my skinny fronts at advantage tire on ulmerton and starkey in largo.

i understand pep boys is cheaper, most people but volkswagen tires on their skinnys, just remember there not speed rated.


IMO the 4 inch fronts look funky. i have 3.5's with 165/15 vw tires.
I was wondering about the 4" for the front, because most of the ad's I've seen were 3.5". Looks like I need to go with the 275/50/15's because as of right now the top of my tire is about an inch from hitting the fenderwell.
