I always felt that 295/50s were too short and wider then i prefer. 275 60s are a little shorter than i prefer as well. 255 70 are very tall but running the 10 inch rim should shorten the hight slightly by the width stretch giving perfect look. on the fronts did you mount cragar 8s or 7s?and i guess 245/70 or 255/60 or 235/75?
