Default RE: Tire sizing on stock 92 nochback

probably not for a couple of reasons. To start with the stock tires are a 225 60 15 or a 225 55 16 both of which are approx. 25.7" and both only about 8.9" wide. You are going to a tire that is 28" in diameter (almost 2.5" bigger in diameter) and approx. 11.5 wide which is over 2.5" wider. Thats A LOT bigger than stock. Now i know from years of doing this that we do 275 40 17s all the time and they are pushing the limit on width at about 10.8. and i also know we have done some 255 60 15s which is pushing the limit in diameter at about 27" you are going almost an ich wider and an inch taller than what we have pushed the limites on all ready in only width or diameter. So without doing some sheet metal pounding and cuttingi am about 99.9% sure that your gonna have some rubbing issues on the inside and maybe even the outside. I dont kow much about the Hoosiers, we do more with Mickey thompson, Nitto, and BFG but i did hte math and M/T makes a 275 50 15 that would fit right in there with no issues. Its 10.8 wide (section width, not tread width) and its 25.7 tall. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
