I just got some 165/80r15s for mine 40$ each! I had sportsmans when i got the wheels and they sucked for DD use. The 165/80'd are 6.5 wide and the sportsmans are 7.5 so on a 3.5" or 4" wide wheel i think sportsmans are to wide! Looks so much better now then it did b4! Even with the new tires being 1" skinner it rides and handles so much better then the sportsmans!

Sportsmans b4 26x7.5

After 165/80= 26x6.5

That 1" helped out the look so much!!!!!
