Just asking around since I've never actually had to buy tires before. (All my vehicles had good tires through their life)

I'm picking up some 15x10's for my truck, and I'm going to need tires for them, but I'm having trouble finding an appropriate tire for daily use (Not competition tires.) I want a small sidewall (highest being a 55, but I'd prefer a 45.)


I've browsed through, but it seems there isn't a very good market in wide 15' tires anymore. Gonna make some calls tomorrow, but until then, just looking for anything you guys might suggest.

225/45 is your only good option. here's a pic of 225s on a 10 inch rim. decent amount of stretch, but nothing dangerous. I run 225/35s on a 9.75 rim
