Tire Size

Have a vintage 67 ford mustang and want to know what the largest 15 inch tire I can put on it without rubbing problems?

My project 67 came with P235/60-15s and there is no evidence of any rubbing.

Thanks Chris, I have 205/75/15 on the car and it scuffs them when you hit a bump or turn sharp. These are almost new tires and I hate to let them go, but don't like the rubbing either.
