I need to get new rear tires and was wondering how wide I could go on 7.5" rims. Would a 235 fit ok?

Thanks, I checked tire rack. Looks like I'll be going 225. Yeah Rishie, I still have the car. Can't sell it. I never see any around, and if I do, not clean. I like being different. I gotta get rid of these rims though. Want to get some 17" Rotas. Think you could sell my rims and cut me a deal on some Rota Attack or something along those lines? I'm looking for a lighter rim than what I have right now. Something like what Seth has on his yellow fc or the Rota's I mentioned above. PM me if you can help me out. Thanks.

It also depends on the tire brand and you can go up to 245 on some brand on a 7.5in rim. When I worked at the repair center, I mounted 255 tires on 16 x 7 in mustang pony rims without any problems.
