I don't run 15" but I can tell you that without flares or a lot of negative camber you will only be able to fit a 195/50/15 under the fenders. With that tire you would probably only want to run a 6" wide wheel. Flair the fenders and the options open up.

Enjoy,

Checked the archives and no definitive answer to the width question. I had 15 inch BBS wheels on my 76 and I can't for the life of me remember what width they were. I am looking for Revolution wheels and have found a number of sites but damned if I know what size I need. I know the offset is approx 26+. Can someone who has 15 inch wheels please clue me in? TIA
ps Naturally the 7 inch are "in stock" and readily available. Six inch so far are a little harder to come by and so far must be purchased in blocks of 60. Yikes.
