Default 15” street tire selection help

Been wanting to go the 17” front 15” back route but not wanting to go drag radial yet. I’ve searched and came up with 2 sizes of street tire with not much of a selection. 275/60/15 that’s 28” tall but suggested rim size is 7-9.5, then 295/50/15 26” tall. Thinking that’s kinda short for 2-4 drop. Anyone have any other suggestions on sizes to look for that will work on 15x10 rim that will look good on 2-4 drop.

275/60 is PERFECT for 10" wheel.

That’s good to know, I’ll run that size until I go sticky. Now to start what fronts I want.

I run a 17x7 front wheel with a 225-65-17 tire and it looks about right.
