Kid wants to run Prostars on his car. What is about the best size to run front and rear? I was thinking 15X7 on front and 15x10 on the rear with a 225-60-15 on the front and 275-60-15 on the rear? He is going to get them from Summit.

15x8 with a 5 inch backspace is perfect for the rear.

Dan which rear end does brandon have. You can run a 10" wide rim and go with a 6.5" BS or like brian says and run a 15x8 but you won't be able to run those 275 wide and not be pulling up the side walls.

Looks more like a 245 to me, but maybe i am just used to my 12.5's

Well, Brandon ordered his Prostars. We got 15X10 with 6.5"bs. Now the fun begins... What size tire that will fit on the rear???? He does not want to run Drag radials because it is his daily driver. He is thinking about running T/A radials.. What do you guys think???

i think 275 would be the best, they fill the wheel wells and are wide enough as well.
