15" Rear tire question.
What the biggest rear tire you can run without rubbing..
Running a 255/60/15 now. Would like to have a bigger
shoes on there. Any respones would be great. Going to stay
with the stock 15" wheel.

That is about it wit ha stock 8 inch wide wheel. Any wider and you will need a wider rim. It would fit but you would have the bead so pulled in the tire would not be right. Go to Tire Racks website and look at the recomended rim widths for the wider tires.
