Re: 275/60/15 at all 4 corners: lowering experts, please come in

FWIW, 255-70x15 tires on 8" rally wheels from a square body truck barely rubbed the bolts holding my inner fenders to the outers. It only happened on bumpy roads while turning. I fixed it by replacing the hex head bolts with button head bolts. My truck has somewhere around a 2" drop at the front.

However, 275-60x15 tires are shorter than mine, so you may not have a problem, depending on how low you go.
