About 295/40R15 Tires

The 295/40R15 is a relatively uncommon tire size that is occasionally found on older performance vehicles, modified muscle cars, and certain classic American cars that have been fitted with wider aftermarket wheels. Some vintage Corvettes, Camaros, and Mustangs from the late 1980s and early 1990s running aftermarket 15-inch rims may use this size. It is more commonly seen in drag racing and track-day builds where a wide, low-profile tire on a 15-inch wheel is desirable.

At the budget end, Nitto and Kumho occasionally offer options in this specialty size at more accessible price points. Mid-range shoppers should look at BFGoodrich and Falken, which offer solid performance and durability for street and light track use. For premium performance, Mickey Thompson and Hoosier are well-regarded choices in this size, particularly for enthusiasts using the tires in competitive or high-performance driving applications.

Because this is a specialty size with limited availability, buyers should purchase whenever stock is available rather than waiting for seasonal sales, as supply can be inconsistent year-round. End-of-season clearance events in late fall may occasionally yield discounts, but selection will be very limited.

Due to its specialty nature and low production volume, the 295/40R15 typically commands higher prices than more common sizes, with limited discounting and occasional availability gaps that can further drive up costs.
