My intuition tells me that the options for 15" tires are coming to the end. It wouldn't surprise me to see BFG being the only maker for a street application. Most people who are running a tire as wide as 295 nowdays just springs for the larger wheels with WAAAAY more options and wider tires.

Right now I think I'm leaning more towards the 17's all around than 17/18's but the 17/18 combo is only like $90 more. So...

In fact, I just looked up 295/50's at discount tire direct and tire rack..

1 match at DTD= BFG
4 matches at tire rack, 1 was BFG

So of 2 of the largest tire dealers on the web, there are a total of 4 options for a 295/50

For the 315/35-17
12 matches at tire rack
3 matches on DTD

I'm not saying that there aren't more... but they're disappearing!
