Sounds about right. My current setup is 18x10.5 with a 295/45 with 5.37in bs
5.5 seems to be the mark for 15x10 275/60

What's the widest tire someone can run with a frame notch?

Great question. I honestly believe I could have gone 305 which is 10mm or 4/10ths of an inch larger. I can put my finger between tire and frame and between tire and fenders. Let's say my finger is half an inch. Even with 3/8ths that would give me 3/4 an inch total space. Not enough for a 315. 305 max for me.

There are a couple of guys that have managed to fit a 315. I don't know how, my wheel wells couldn't fit a tire that wide with no frame
