Chevy & GMC Vans

so, i crashed my van. too lazy to put the studs on, hit some ice and smacked into a snowplow. bent the frame, tons of body damage, cracked the oil pan, bent the steering knuckle and upper arm, etc... but i rigged it all back together and it's back in the game. so my question is, i have three 215/75/15 BFG a/t's with between 9-10/32nds of meat left on them and can't seem to find a similarly worn match. the spec on a new replacement is 16/32nds, if i get one new tire will it burn up my drivetrain? is there an ideal position for a tire with more meat on it? in the mean time i've been running some nearly to the bars kelly safari tires, (passenger rated) and i'm waiting for them to explode and leave me and six passengers in a bloody mess. just don't trust'em, nor can i step up and buy a new set of LT's. thanks!

You NEED new tires! They are the only thing keeping you and your passengers on the road and alive!!!

That said...you could possibly run the 1 better tire on the front and run the same ones on the rear and other front. The front diff is open and will allow differential action. I can't guarantee you won't cause severe issues with the transfer case and/or front diff. Both will cost to repair about what a set of tires would cost to buy.

I agree, get a new set. You can sell the old ones on CL or similar.
