Carlos,
You can run a 10" rear on these cars w/o issues,ideal b/s would be 5.75" or maybe even 6".
A 295/50-15 would fit the back and give you a nice meaty tire w/o issues.
15x7 is too narrow in front for these cars,IMHO...I'd go a 15x8 with a 255 or 275 tire to better fill out the wheelwells.:yes:

15X8 4.5 backspacing 275/60-15 rears
15X7 4.0 backspacing 225/70-15 fronts
Like that combo
