what tyres are you gonna run, ie; brand. Not many tyres that size for a 15inch rim these days i would of thought. Ive got 8 inch interceptors made up for slicks and would be interested in who makes 235\245s for a 15 inch rim. For 265s youd need at least a 9inch rim.... On a lowered VN id think youd struggle to get 265s under there without some modification to inner and outer guards. Why on a 15 inch rim? Most tyre mobs are concentrating on 17inch and bigger for wider tyres.

Theres heaps of tyres that size. 90% of muscle cars run them. I have 265/50/15s on mine at the moment. You can have them on an 8 inch rim... mine are 8.5s.
You would need to modify the wheels / diff to get anything that size under a VN, even then it probably wouldnt be tucked up in the gaurd.
Just an update if youre interested - There is no such thing as a 265/60/15. Only a 255/60/15. Then it goes up into 4wd tyres.
I know this cause I just rang my tyreman to order some
