Let's start with what size tire is on there now.

But yes if those are the factory 15" wheels a 275/60/15 will fit on them.

While that size will be about 1.5" wider they will also be about 1" shorter in case you didn't want that.

255/70r15 is way gooder.
A 275/60 ain't gonna fill **** up. Your gap will only be exasperated. That would be a great choice if you want to lose an inch of height and half an inch of sidewall....


255/70 dude.

P.s. haha I said exasperated....



Play with this dealy and check out the "comparison" tool.
