Post Tire Sizes

Hello, folks;

Question for you;
What is the biggest 15" tire size that anyone has run on the front wheels of your ride? I'm thinking about investing in some 15"x8" or 15"x9" rims and putting P255 60 R15 tires on the Cougar, but I'm not sure about interference problems. I thinkit should fit from all the measurements I've taken, but...
I know that P275 60 R15 tires will fit with ease on the back wheels, but I'd like to keep the tire and wheel size consistant on all 4 corners for handling purposes. But if anyone has successfully fit those fat meats on the front, what the hell! That'd be cool so far as I'm concerned.

As always, any help would be appreciated.

Mike
