235/60r15s on 7in wide 3.75 BS wheels on the front
Those are 255/60r15s on 8in. wide 3.75 BS rear wheels . I like the tire bulge even with the fender flare and the tread just inside the well and this worked for me with the rear.

That looks perfect. Very nice car. I'm wanting to go with 265 on the rear but didn't want too skinny of a front tire. I figured a 235 would be a good way to go. Thank you for the photos.

Where are you finding 265s for 15s? You'll get better looks and better handling if you put your 235s on 8s with 4.5" backspacing. Won't stick out of the fender, but will be 1/4" closer to flush than Ron's pics.
