    sell or throw out the whole lot and get some good tires and matching rims. Should be able to get used tires on rims for $200 if you keep your eyes open

    What'd this going on? If it's on a jeep on large axles I'd go with the 10s or narrower for trail riding. For mostly mud go with the 12's to get a little larger footprint from the tires.

    the narrower the better for keeping the tire on the rim at low pressures.

    these are your tires on 15x10's though. i like em a lot. hard compound rubber. they'd be better grooved, but i'm low schooled. for dirctionals, you can turn them around when you rock crawling... though i never do... go rock crawling.
