    i have a set of 15 x 8 baby moons that i will be putting on my truck in the near future. my question is if i get a 225 60 15 tire how bad will it rub? also im planning to drop it using spindles. with that 2" drop will the tire be too big to run? any info would be great. thanks.

    I had the same wheels on my old yota, I don't think mine scrubbed in the front but I used a 3" block in the back and the only time I remember the scrubbing was if I had alot of weight in the back, like a buddy of mine that weighs 200 pounds.

    i think as long as you dont have too much of a negative offset you'll be fine and i'm 100% sure of that. i have 15x8.5 with 265/50/15 and with weight it rubs and w/o it barely touches. i know if i had just a few mm's more positive it'll be perfect. or if i took out the lowering block (1").
