245/50/16" is your best bet which will be the widest and tallest, or 225/55/16" for stock profile.

Depends on the backspacing of the wheels and if the car is lowered.

how wide are ten holes? I think they at 8". Because I have a 275 bfg dr on a set of ten holes. So if ten holes are narrower than your ponies, you should be good with 265 in the rear...not sure bout the front. will likely rub imo

10 holes are 15x7, and 275's bulge like crazy on them.

haha bulge doesnt even begin to describe it. I'll try to post pictures later haha... I got 255 on the ponies and they bubble a lot. from a side profile you don't see any rim.
