Depends how wide your rims are. 30 x 9:50 x15 is a good size, but some shops insist you need at least 6" wide or 7" wide rims, not stock 5.5" rims
I happily run 30's on both 7's and 5.5's

just get bighorns, they're a much better tyre than the buckshots... make sure you put the white writing on the inside.

I ran buckshots for a couple of years. Loved them when I didn't have anything to compare them too as far as mud terrains go. I am still a fan though. Pretty cheap, wear well, decent traction in mud, seemed to be strong. I'd get another set if I didn't want a real hardcore mud terrain.

yeah the text is just too big on the new ones... makes the tyres look really small, almost low profile.

There's a Triton down the road with them in the stock size on 17s and my friends mum has them on her GU (also stock size) and they look alright, they look ridiculous on 15s though. Mind you the Triton has tiny sidewalls and the trolls ones are brown so it doesn't stand out.
