Depends on the "look" your after, repro Goodyear PolyGlass GT F60X15's would be the stock OEM type offering... Aftermarket is quite slim as far as 15" offerings, the most popular being BFG, some GoodYear sizes are still avaliable, personal choice is up to you if you want WLT or blackwall, or if performance is your goal, Pirelli has some P Zero's in 15" sizes still available...

Bigger is something like a SUV or truck. I have those on my 7" Rallye wheels. With a Charger born in Chrysler assembly plant in Valencia, Venezuela

But as time wore on, the short sidewalls of a 50-series started to look too short. 70 or 60 series I think provide a better, more cohesive look to my eye.
