the 295 is how wide the tire is 295MM, the 50 is a proportional rating of the hieght of the tire to the wheel. Know aslo as 50 series tire. The 15 in the diameter of the wheel, the R in there is a speed rating. Means it is good for so much speed over a long period of time (I don;t know the exact number for the R but you can google it. And the 105H I don't know.

Thanks for the help. I finally finished and they work GREAT well it does rub on the fender lip when i hit a bump but that is because i think my shock is shot. It rides lower on one side than the other as soon as i fix that every thing should be running great.

No, the "R" means Radial, as in the type of tire. 105 H is the speed rating.

you will want to get some new lower control arms because without the quad shocks you will experience wheel hop
