David, should be the same as what is mounted on the other four wheels, 8.00x15 or 8.25x15 if AC equipped.

Sorry Lee, I think 8.20x15 is the right size….

Holger,

You are absolutely right. A typing slip up on my part. Glad you caught it and corrected it.

So with that size I assume you’re running bias ply tires? I’m running 235/75 15 Coker radial tires, I’m looking for other options

David,

I am running radial tires in a bias ply look and size(American classics). I also doubt if 235/75 15 fit in the trunk.

If you would buy a radial tire in the original size, you have the original look in the trunk (with the spare tire cover) and a radial tire in the case of emergency.
