Default Will 275/50/15 fit on 15x10" wheel?

I'm getting some 15x10s and I don't think I wanna run street slicks right now so I'm looking at the ET Street radials or Nitto 555r but they only come in 275/50/15 and 275/60/15. I guess the only difference is the sidewall, probably no difference in tread width right? Most people put these on 15x8s which is why I'm asking how these would fit on 15x10s. I don't want to worry about a tire coming off or spinning on the rim or somethin like that. Help! thanks

have you ever had any issues or anything? The 60 would only give a bigger sidewall than the 50, it wouldn't be any wider right? thanks

The 60 is 10% taller then the 50.

275(A) / 60(B) / 15(C)

(A) is width of the tire
(B) is the side wall hight and that relates to total tire hight.
(C) is the rim size

Here is a old shot of my car with the 10X15 and the 275/60/15 that is a 28 inch tall tire.



I dont street drive the car, so i have no problems rubbing, but i dont see why if you have the right offset wheel it would rub, its a pretty narrow tire compared to what some people run
