Hi,
I was told by a friend I can go as high as 275/60/15 on the stock rims. So I figure 245/60/15 will fit easily in the back, assuming you havent' made any major changes to the suspension or anything.

Bye!

THE 245/60/15 WILL FIT WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS, SEEN THEM ALL OVER HERE , HOWEVER I WOULDNT RUSH INTO THE 275/60/15 , HEIGHT , AND WIDTH COULD BECOME A FACTOR HERE , ALSO THE HEIGHT WILL WRECK YOUR OVERALL GEARING SOMEWHAT, DESTROYING YOUR ACCELERATION, PLUS YOUR SPEEDO WILL BE WAY OUT OF WHACK.
