^^^..... umm, I am not entirely sure I understand the logic of that post if you aren't looking for extreme stretch. Not being mean, but how does a 9.5/10" wheel suggest 195mm tires?

I should tell you to search blah blah blah, but I feel like not being the usual zilvian gruff ass.... Shut up, you all know it is true

9.5" is 241.3 mm which means you should look for something that is 235 or 245 wide. However, if you are going for stretched, then something down near 215 ish I would suppose.

Try citytireonline.com, although getting a 15" tire that wide is prob pretty hard. However, putting a tire that is 7" wide on a wheel that is 9.5" wide sounds wrong to me, again I acknowledge the people who like stretch, butI jsut dont understand it

Hoosier is the only one I can think of that has a tire that will fit something like that even close to square. You're stuck with r-compounds though - they sell a P275/35ZR15 in the A6 and the R6.

i put those things on.. it wasnt easy
what im trying to say is that there r many different size tires that u could use it shouldnt be that hard to find some ..
only reason it would be hard is if u dont want a stretch.

BFG makes a tire in that size iirc. I dont know about the height though. My friend has some 15x9.5" wheels on his chevelle. BFGoodrich Radial T/A Tires - JEGS (http://www.jegs.com/p/BF+Goodrich/746885/10002/-1)
