I believe most people use BFG 275- 60-15's for the backs and 235 or 245-60-15's for the front. Are these the most popular tires these days?

Way stiff, good in the wind. 30 inches tall, not fat. GM Factory alloys. These work well for a one ton, I run them on the '94 B350 Xplorer too, same size, factory wheels.
Goodyear Wrangler 235/75/15.radials on the '88 B250, on Cragar black steel 5 spokes. Good all around relatively inexpensive tires that I don't mind too much if they pick up a nail in the alley.

These will go on my Ford 1984 E-150 Econoline. Will 60's be too short for the van? I've always used them in the past. Right now there are Goodyear 235-75-15's all the way around on stock steel wheels. I'm trying to go with the retro look. Most of my other vans had the BFG 60's all the way around.
