Narrowest tire on 7'' wheels

[smokingunz]

Hey guys, I have a set of american racing wheels i dont really love on my car so im just mounting them up as a "drag race" setup. 15x8 rears wih 275/60 drag radials and 15x7 up front with????? I want the narrowest tire that doesnt look bad on that size wheel, any thoughts? I was thinking 215/65 or possibly 205/70

Personally, I love the look of a 215/65. It fits perfectly and the sidewalls are nicely squared up on a 7 inch wide rim.

I run a 215/75-15 on the front for max rollout with out looking too goofy.
I had them mounted black wall out.

Thats a fairly tall tire, wich is why i was considering the 205/70...to be as tall and thin as possible on that wheel, but h0w tall is to tall???

Helps keep the beams tripped to maximize et. I'll post a pic when I get home.
