anyone have 295/50-15's on there mini tubbed relocated dart?? if so, how do they look? ride? fit? thanks!
 
Should be about 26.6" tall in diameter.

Take the width (295 mm) which may be the tread or the sidewalls....whatever
is the widest point when mounted on the median recommended rim width at the
recommended pressure x the aspect ratio (.50) - which is the % the sidewall height
is of the overall width calculated above x 2 (2 sidewalls) divided by 25.4 (converts
to inches) + the rim diameter (15") = the overall diameter in inches.
 
I ran them on my 67 Dart GT.
295/50/15 BF Goodrich radial T/A's, had a lot of sidewall bulge.

Offset kit, no minnie tub, narrowed 8 3/4, rolled lips, 8" rim with 3.75" back space.
Had 1/2" clearance at the springs and a slight rub on the driver side quarter on turns.
Went to Nitto, 275/50/15's drag radial with the same tread width and flatter sidewall. No issues and theirs still the same amount of tire on the ground.
The Nitto's are way stickier though. I really like them.
