Wanted some opinions on tire size for my blazer

Heres what im thinking

back- 15x10  275/60/15

Suspension is 3" Drop spindles and a flip kit

That is a lot of tire up front for a 15x7 rim... at least the tires I have mounted on 15x8 are huge, same size...

     I agree with Zieg, so you have a 2wd blazer right ?

I know all tire brands have differences in sizes but here is an example.  This is a Uniroyal but BFG are the same.  This was my $10 CL find I just got, with trim ring.

With the drop spindle and 15x7 you may be better off with a 225/70 or 235/70 up front.  My $.02
