    15s may fit on the back, but wont fit on the front.

    Thats a TON of grinding. Not worth it IMO.

    +1 on the lots of grinding. i tried OBS 16"s & even they wouldn't fit without grinding. maybe somebody makes one that will clear, but it'll take some digging

    ok so the tahoe rim is 16x7. im looking for a drag radial and the only one i can find that may work is this one Mickey Thompson 3794R Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial Drag Tires
    Itsay rim width 8-10. Do yall think it would be safe to run this tire on a 7" rim?
