Will these wheels/tires fit?

So we're saying 11.5" tires are too narrow for a 15x10 wheel? And also that a 12.5" tire is too wide for a 15x8?

You can shop by size to help you find the tires that are right for your application.

The chart assumes a 1:1 ratio between the input and output shafts on the transmission. On the AW4 in top gear with the TC locked, it's an overdrive ratio, so more like .75:1.
