On the 15" rims go with a P235/60R15 as long as the rim is around 7 to 8" wide. Will look good and handle a bit better than stock P215/65R15.
For 16" go with the P245/50R16's all around. Then you can rotate them. If you want a shorter sidewall in front, then use a P245/45R16, while maintaining the same width.

I had 245/45/16's on the front of my formula and the tire looked a little small for the rim. In back I had 255/50/16's.
I think when i replace the rubber on my gta i'll go 245/50/16 front and 255/50/16 rear.
