        I think Guy A  used 16"X9" or something crazy  like that with
245-45-16s. This might require a fender flare job. :)

Wow, lots of quick replies!

Let me emphasize -- yes, I know that 225/45-13's fit fine on 8.5"
wheels.  I know there are many sources of such wheels.

I'm asking about 15" wheels, not 13" wheels.
Yes, I know the tradeoffs.

Thanks again!
