What kind of rims do you have?

15 X 10's would be fine. On a 10 inch rim, 315 MT's would be good.

i don't think you can put anything bigger then a 295 on a 10 inch wheel and be safest.

315's are rated to fit a 10.5" wheel in most, if not all cases. It is the minimum accepted width in all cases I have seen as an 11"~12" is a better fit, IMO. Confirm whatever tire you want to fit whatever wheel you decide to purchase.
