It could have been a special edition truck that doesn't show up in the pull down menu. (i saw the same thing Hoff did and wondered the same thing as well)
But the difference in Circumference between a 235/60/15 and 235/75/15 is 10%!
They show those same 2 O.E. sizes for the related Mazda B-Series trucks as well.
I guess the OP should take a look at the build plate around the door jamb, to verify what size the truck should be equipped with.
I did, P235 60r 15, which is what I have been putting on it. But... the selection has been 1 or 2 different tires and that's it. That is the reason for the question, more selection. Thanks everyone.

If you want a 15 inch performance tire that is cheaper and more available switch to a 225/70R15 tire size. I recommend the BF Goodrich Radial T/A
This kind of reminds me of something. My wife had a car a few years back (can't remember which one it was atm) that had a unique tire size. Which was funny because there have to be millions of that car on the road...but she could hardly find tires to put on it once when they wore out. I mean you could look them up online on something like Tire Rack but if you just went to a local shop and asked for new tires for it they would kind of stutter and scratch their heads because they couldn't believe they didn't have the size in stock...and couldn't get it either. I think eventually she just had to settle for 'close enough'. In the end what we bought was so close to the original size that it didn't make much difference.
A 215/65/R15 tire is *almost* the same size physically as a 235/60/R15.
I have a car that came factory with a 215/65/R15 and wanted to use 235/60/15's as I found they would only throw the speedometer off my like maybe .2 MPH. Also in a side by side comparison, the 235 was only slightly bigger, physically.
I ended up going with the 215's only because the manufacturer of the tires I bought didn't make them in 235's.
Oh yeah....even Wal Mart claims a 235 was considered a "performance" tire.
