i have an unused set of 10 holes in my garage at home, so i am going to buy a some mickey thompson DRs for when i go to the track. i am looking at the 275/60/15 or the 275/50/15. which would be better, and do i have to roll the wheel well at all?

thank you for any help

The 235/60/15's will fit a stock 10 hold rim best, the 275/50's and 275/60's will fit..but the sidewalls bow big time. You probably will have to roll your fender lip to get the 275's to clear.

I agree with Jeff, stay with the 235/60 on a 10 hole.

The 235/60 is a good little tire...don't let the size fool you. You can easily go 12's on them. Heck..there is a heads up class out west that has to run that size tire...they are going mid/low 10's on that size dr.
