What size radials for knock-offs?

;help

Hi guys...I was looking for some help figuring out the best radial tires to fit a set of knock-offs. Does anyone have a size(s) that will fit them? I like the look of the bias ply but I have a nice driver and want a set of radials for safety/fuel economy etc.

Thanks!

Think you may want to look at 205 75r 15 's These are generally accepted replacements for the 7.75 15's.

I used 215/70/R15's for mine. I wanted a slightly wider looking tire - it comes in a whitewall and it fits with no clearance issues.

Yeah, I like the wider look too. Thanks!

It took me a long time deciding what looked best for me. And not wanting to buy several sets I settled and use 215-65R-15 black walls. The 70 and 75`s are a taste too tall. A friend has the knock-offs with narrow whites and 205`s and it`s not for me.
