    just wanted to know what size tires I should get for 15x7s with 3.75 back spacing. I was looking at some 225/60/15s but not sure if they would look small on the car. what do ya'll think? thanks russ

    I would like to keep them all the same size. just want to get as big as I can to fill in the wheel well without modifications

    With a 225 and that 3-3/4" backspacing, if you lower the front any, they're gonna rub on the fender lip when turning corners.
