Default need help on tires

I ordered a pair of jegs sport star 5-spoke wheels:

rim diameter: 15"
rim width: 8"
studs: 5
bolt circle: 4.50"
back spacing: 5.50"

What size tires would you suggest I go with? I'm leaning towards M/T et street radials but I'm just not sure of the size. Any input would be appreciated

If you ordered them for a camaro or firebird, thats the wrong bolt pattern, camaros and firebirds are 5 lug 4.75 or 120mm.

If you did order the wrong wheels, send'em back and get the right size as stated above. If you are dead nuts set on the M/T radials go with a 275/50/15(26" tall) or a 275/60/15(28" tall)

Thanks for the replies. I didn't think that was the right bolt pattern, but when I called them, I told them what kind of car I had, and this was the size they suggested. I figured I should post on here just in case. Thanks again
