if you want more of a stock look and to be able to rotate your tires as said before, then 225/70r15 would be a better setup, close to OE size
although he hasn't shown us the car, or let us know what look he's going for, the fact that the car has SS springs would lead me to believe he's not going for an OEM look (???)
that and the fact that he'd use cop wheels...

Here is a possibility....fronts: 215/70/15 Rears: 255/70/15. That should fit. The biggest problem is in the hiney. Cop wheels are normally 4 1/4 back spacing. I have 4.5 back spacing and 275/60/15 in the rear. It's tight but no rubs. The above combo should work. Pay attention the section width of the rear tires. You should go no more than 10.5 inches with cop wheel back spacing.
Yea, nice combo, but he said he wants the same size so he can rotate them.
