Not sure what you searched for, but "15 inch wheel" came right up.

Tires are harder to balance. They all have a wobble do to the increased sidewall.
Recently bought a Synergy Tie rod and the Tre's hit the inside of the wheel.

Yea... I saved $100 + per tire but if I were to do it again I would do 16's possibly 17's.

Have you tried airsoft beads? Wheel spacers help with the clearance problems?

Running 15s with Reid knuckles, synergy tie rod flip and no spacers. No problems and they're great. Less wheel area to hit and more rubber to flex.
