  Wanting to find out if a 215/75r/15 with 6” wide rim will fit ok. Thanks for your help!

  Unless you do some clearancing of the rear wheel areas, the largest tires that will comfortably fit on the car are 205/75R15 on the stock 5" wide wheels. If you can be happy with blackwall tires, you can use Goodyear Assurance All-Season Radial Tubeless tires. They are great tires at a reasonable price that perform well, provide a great ride and good tread life.
