thats what i run too ---- they are taller than 15.5's, and imo they go just as good-- i've run both.
I ended up changing the torsion bars to the ones out of a swingaxle and cutting the plates and redrilling them--- then u dont have that long cap sticking out.

I try to stay out of the mud as much I can. I would like to rig up some kind of fenders easy on easy off for mud riding

semi fenders. cut them down the middle and you have 1 for each side. 1" tubing goes into the mounting position. watch for them on the highway. the hard plastic stays. my dads have been on his for 5 years. no problems.
