I am looking at a set of Brand new Mickey Thompsons for the back of my car. I know a guy that has a set and I don't want to buy them if they won't fit. So, my question is will these fit my car. They are 275/50/15's on my 10" wide wheels. IIRC the wheels have a 4.5" backspacing in them. Will they work and is anyone running anything like this I would love to see some pics of it.

26" tall and around 10.8 wide on the 275/50/15 tires.

Check it out on the wheel/tire calculator at the top of this thread. How tall are your front tires?

on my 85 monte I ran Mickey Thompson ET Streets P275/50/R15's on an 8" rim with 5 1/2" BS and a 2 " spacer. I didnt like using the spacer and the 26" tires looked small in the wheel well. I switched to an 8" rim with a 3 1/2" BS and a Hoosier drag radial size 295/65/R15 which is a 29.5" tall tire. They look much better in the wheel well and fit perfectly without even notching the frame.
