Large tires on factory wheels

[jmartens]

I have an '87 Eddie Bauer and I want to keep the classic look of the stock wheels. I believe they are 15x7. Reasonably speaking, how large tire can I put on them? How large are they even made for this wheel size?

I would guess you could step up at least to a 235/75R15. The stock wheel on my 90 BII was a 205/75R15. I had the 235's on the BII when I bought it but put it back to the stock 205's. I have the same stock rims as you.

I run 235/75/R15s on those.

Is there even such thing as a tire bigger than 235 for a 15x7 wheel?

Those wheels are 15x6, not 7. I had a set of TSL Q78x15's on those wheels.

I had 235/75r15 Toyo tires on my stock wheels and they filled the wheel wells nicely. No rubbing issue at all.
