Would someone be able to tell me what is the largest tire I can put on a stock suspension with a 15.5 wheel.

Currently running 185x65x15 and want to go a little more aggressive without tires rubbing on the fenders.

205x60x15

I've had a couple 914's with this size. Current narrow body has 205x60x15 with 6" cookies. 195x65x15 is a safe size as well.

I'm running 205x65x15 Michelins on the standard 5.5" rims, rubs a bit on the inside of the well at full lock, but drives and corners very well.
