Jim,

I have run 216/60-15 tires on both the stock rims and 15x7 Panasports.  15x7
wheels may cause the following:

1.  You will probably have to grind a bit off of the upper suspension arms
and use a shorter bolt on the outer ball-joint hole as the suspension arms
and bolt can foul the edge of the wheel at full lock

2.  You will probably have to use stick on wheel weights as the suspension
arms will knock off clamp-on weights

3. The outer edge of a 215/60 tire may foul the fender edge - either roll it
under of grind a bit off

4.  The inner edge of a 215/60 tire may foul the anti-roll bar at full lock
(but you already have this with stock wheels)

Hope this helps,
