From my "background" I'm pretty sure most 215s will fit. Some 225s even fit I've heard. Which exact ones do and which exact ones don't I have no idea. Just digging back in the echos of my mind...

Would you need a 7.5" wide rim to get a 215 or 225 on there?

You can fit 215s on our stock 15x6 inch rims. I want to get 215/50/15 but there aren't as many choices in that size as there are at 205/50/15.

I don't think I'd try and get a 225 on the car, stock rim or otherwise.

i could have sworn that *** trecently i heard someone say they wouldnt fit on our stockers, but who knows....i dont know anybody that has 215's. Generally, with most stock wheels on any car you can only go 10mm over.... On my old car (92 Tercel) i had 145 series, and moved up to a massive 155 wide tread when i needed new tires. laugh all you want, lol, i miss that car http://laf.cioe.com/~benbobbo/NonCGI/frown.gif

Look through the different rim widths that the different sizes will fit on.
It looks like 225 will fit on the rim. But I don't know if it will fit in the wheelwell.
