About the 275/60R15 size
L60-15 in the old code, and the tire restorers fit at the rear of the most famous staggered set in American motoring. The 1970 Challenger T/A and AAR Cuda left the factory on E60-15 front and G60-15 rear; a measured G60-15 is only 26.6 in tall, so 245/60R15 is the dimensional match and 275/60R15 is the wider modern rear most cars actually run. It is also the default rear tire for a street-driven big-block on 15x8 or 15x10 wheels. Needs 8 in of rim minimum, and on an E-body it needs the fender lip rolled. Coker sells bias G60-15 reproductions; the Mickey Thompson is the drag-look radial and is not a wet-weather or winter tire in any sense. Load index around 107 but check it, some drag-oriented models are rated well below a street tire. Note on price: the tires listed here are the period-correct ones, with raised white letters or a classic tread, and they are priced accordingly. A plain modern radial in the same size, where one is still made, is usually cheaper and fits the car just as well. Check both before you decide; the look is what you are paying the difference for.
What the numbers on the sidewall mean
A 275/60R15 tire is 275 millimeters wide, its sidewall is 60 percent of that (about 6.5 inches tall), and it mounts on a 15-inch wheel. That works out to an overall diameter of roughly 28 inches. Every replacement has to match all three numbers, and the load index and speed rating on the placard inside the driver's door have to be met or exceeded.
In this size our picks are marked 107T on the Milestar Streetsteel and Hankook Kinergy ST (H735) (2,150 lb per tire, rated to 118 mph) and 107S on the BFGoodrich Radial T/A (2,150 lb per tire, rated to 112 mph). The first number is the load index, the letter the speed rating; a tire with equal or higher values than your placard is fine, a lower one is not.
Our guide on reading a tire size walks through the markings, and this one lists every load index and speed code.
Our three picks, side by side
One tire at each price level from what the retailer stocks in this size, with the mileage warranty and UTQG grades as published by the manufacturers and their retailers. Treadwear is the number to compare: it is a relative wear rate, so 700 should last roughly twice as long as 350 on the same car.

Frequently asked questions
How much do 275/60R15 tires cost?
Expect $160–$186 per tire for a budget brand, $186–$245 for a mid-range tire like the Hankook Kinergy ST (H735), and $245–$301 for a premium tire like the BFGoodrich Radial T/A. A set of four therefore starts at about $640. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 275/60R15 tires?
275/60R15 is original equipment on Dodge Challenger T/A (1970, G60-15 rear), Buick GSX (1970-1971, G60-15 equivalent), Plymouth AAR Cuda (1970, G60-15 rear), Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 (1970-1972, rear upsize) and Ford Mustang (1979-1993, 15x8 rear fit), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 275/60R15 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Hankook Kinergy ST (H735), is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the BFGoodrich Radial T/A is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Milestar Streetsteel is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 275/60R15 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
