I have 15x10 rims on my K5 with 35x12.5 tires now. I like the hight but i want to go wider. How wide of a tire will fit on a 10" wide rim...? Would like to run 35x15 TSLs . What problems come from as 15" wide tire?

So you know its a 87 K5 with 3"body lift 4" suspension lift and some trimming done on the front wells so far. Willing to trim more :D
 
as long as u dont have a huge amount of backspace it will work. the only worry is clearing ur drag link. i have 15x10 with 4.25" backspacing with tsl radials and i clear fine. and they stick out the front wheel well about 2.5"
 
they'll fit but the sidewalls might rub springs, shocks, or steering parts during hard turns.
