Goodyear lists the Marathon ST225/75R15 D at 28.3" in diameter and 8.7" wide on a 6" rim. BF Goodrich lists the Commercial T/A in LT215/85R16/E at 29.9 in diameter and 8.6" wide on 6" rim. Do you have 3/4" on top and 1.5 between the tires to lose?
BF Goodrich also lists the Commercial T/A in LT225/75R16/E at 29.9 in diameter and 8.8" wide on 6" rim. Both T?A's have a 2680@80 load rating, up from the ST225/75R15 D rating of 2540@65. If you can make it work it's well worth it.

Thanks for the responses.... I just checked and have lots of room between the tires and about an inch above the tires.
