I ran P255/70r15's, and had to use a sledgehammer on the inner rear wheel well (near the bottom front by the lower control arm attachment point) to make them fit.
Then I shoed up with some P275/60r15's, and they fit okay. If I never took the sledge to the car before, I probably would've had to do so for these tires.
Now I'm at P245/60r15... and can actually peel out and chirp the tires now. Much more fun!
