arent the stock formula wheels 16x8's? atleast mine are lol.... so a 275/60 R15 will definetly not fit since its designed for a 15 inch rim.... if you have 15 inch rims i believe their 15x7's... so a 275 is really pushing it for a 7 wide rim since i believe they usually require atleast a 7.5" wide rim...if your looking to keep a somewhat close overall diameter then a 275/50R15 would work better if you have 15 inch rims... if you have 16's some 255/50R16 drag radials will work....

Ditto. If you have 15's, you dont have a formula.
