I just got some 15x7 Baja wheels. I want to put some nice tires on them but I don't want to mess with the front wheel well. I don't need really wide tires and I want to run the same size on all 4 corners. Can anyone suggest a tire size that won't rub on the front wheel well. Thanks. Tnicean

Tire sizes today
Now a days
215 is the width of the tire
70 is the side wall height profile
15 rim
I would jack up the van under the front axle
Remove wheel and tire install new rim
Then measure between the front lowest point of wheel well and the new rim where the tire seats
This will give you the tire height you need
75 ,70,65,60,55,50, tire profile/height
Back in the day tire width was 70, 60, 50
To tall of a tire will rub
