I put 15x7 all around on my Roadrunner and recently put 15x7 front and 15x8 on rear of my Charger.... both look good. I like the 15x8 rear on Charger.....

On a '68, I've gone as wide as 15x8 steelies (4.5 or 4.25 BS depending on how you measure). 265/50R15 front, 295/50 rear, filled the openings nicely, didn't rub anywhere, actually plenty of room. That 50-series sidewall looked a little too short to me, though nobody else seemed to notice. Current '68 has 15x7 & 15x8 Magnums, 235/60 & 275/60, looks appropriate to me. The 8s & 265/50s were a bit much parking with manual steering & Hemi. The 7s & 235/60s not bad at all parking, manual steering & 383. Member "mickm" here with a '70 seems to have tighter rear wheelhouses than my '68s. 15x10 with 5.5 BS & 295/65s is the most you can run on '68-'69 Plymouth B rear.

The tire size that you go with will have some say in what size wheel you can use. These are 15 x 8.5 Western Cyclone II wheels with Goodyear Rally GT tires on them, G-50's on the front and L-50's on the rear. These pics are from 1982, before people started thinking that you could only put factory looking wheels on a car.
Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol
