If it's the 15x7...God NO. Waaaaayyyy too big and it'll bulge out on the
sides (looks dumb as is and isn't safe for the tire).

If it's the 15x8, Maybe...but wouldn't try it unless you've got a 15x10

I believe the widest you can go on the 15x8 is a 265 - 275...safely.

Subject: DML: Tire Size?

Will a 295/50/r15 fit on my stock 15 inch rims. I have the optional split
five spokes. I'm looking at this tire, it's a firehawk. Very soft and I have
seen them hook good before. If it won't fit, what is the widest I can go on
my rim, and if I change the tire height I have to go up to my dealership and
have them re-calibrate my computer for the different size tires, right?
