Trying to figure out what to get for my Fury, Going to have Steel wheels, 2 sets actually, 1 set is 15 x 6 and the others are 15 x 6.5, the 6's currently have 225/60/15's but they look very small when compared to the wheel openings and I would like more sidewall.

The higher the aspect ratio, the larger a sidewall. The highest you can get today through conventional tire stores is 75. After that you're looking at Coker, etc.
225R75-15 is about it.
Stormer will find you some 18" rims if you want.

My Monaco has 235/70-15. These are almost perfect in height compared to the original.

Nice Monaco X2, seems a 70-75 series sidewall is the way to go, the 15x6's will receive a nice 1" whitewall the painted 15x6.5 will receive just a plain blackwall.

Thanks guys, the little things help the overall picture.

And these are the 225/60/15's, IMO they look small (Below)

P235/75 R15...white walls. Don't care about the brand, as long as they are white walls and affordable. I Don't race it.
