I am also running 275/60/15 and I like them. Just need to lower a couple of inches to give it the right stance.

Check these tires out. An alternative to the 20+ year old design of BFG T/A's, which I find to be somewhat lacking in any performance characteristics, especially in the rain!
H-rated (!) & less expensive than the BFG's, which are only S-rated. The 'H' rated tires are built with a stiffer carcass, especially in the sidewalls, enabling more 'enthusiastic' (hehe!) driving!

275/60's. $97.46 ea.! https://www.onlinetires.com/product...s/275%2F60-15+maxxis+ma-s1+marauder+107h.html
The BFG's run around $155.00 ea.

295/50's. Cheaper yet! $76.05! https://www.onlinetires.com/product...s/295%2F50-15+maxxis+ma-s1+marauder+108h.html
The BFG's are in the $190.00 ea. range. More than 2X as much!

A quickie speed rating chart.

Beginning in 1991, the speed symbol denoting a fixed maximum speed capability of new tires must be shown only in the speed rating portion of the tire's service description, such as 225/50R16 89S. The most common tire speed rating symbols, maximum speeds and 'typical' applications are shown below

L	75 mph	120 km/h	Off-Road & Light Truck Tires
M	81 mph	130 km/h	Temporary Spare Tires
N	87 mph	140km/h
P	93 mph	150 km/h
Q	99 mph	160 km/h	Studless & Studdable Winter Tires
R	106 mph	170 km/h	H.D. Light Truck Tires
S	112 mph	180 km/h	Family Sedans & Vans
T	118 mph	190 km/h	Family Sedans & Vans
U	124 mph	200 km/h
H	130 mph	210 km/h	Sport Sedans & Coupes
V	149 mph	240 km/h	Sport Sedans, Coupes & Sports Cars

I like the Hankook Ventus H101's myself. Last a long time and perform well.

24" boss wheels wrapped in lexani 295/35/24 tires

I liked the classic wheels better but I'm biased. I would like to buy your old ones or even just one for a spare if you happen to still have them.

I traded them for some 15x8 aluminum wheels cause the wide ones are not good in the winter
