Tire size for 15x10 wheels?!

Hey guys I found an awesome deal on some 15x10 jeep wheels and I was wondering what the best tire size to go with would be? I'm running 30x9.50s now on my stock wheels but kinda want to go down to 225s again since I am 2wd and the bigger tires are killing the 4 cylinder. Any help is appreciated!

youd be stretched m4d tyt3 jdm y0.

if its an all terrain app. 265/70 or 29x10

if its street. 255/60-295/50

you could go 235 and stretch it but why

those 15x10s are gonna be heavier than your stock wheels probably. and no 225s...most people here will say that 10.50s are even too small for 15x10s. maybe you should rethink what you want to do.

10.5's are too small for a 10 wide wheel. Yea it will work but it's not the safest thing to do.

12.50 tire width minimum on a 10" rim IMO. Though people do run 11.50's on 10's. I wouldn't wanna air 'em down though...



Good luck trying to make and hold a bead with a 225.... 12.50 is approx a 315mm.
