Width of tire on rim

I thought this would be in the FAQ but it wasn't. What width tire can I put on 6.5 inch wide rims.

Ok since no one will answer then tell me what width is the stock 15's on the 95-96 maxima SE.

Not sure what size rims are on 96's, but 97's had the 16x6.5...and the widest tire you can put on there are 225's.

Perfect 225 is all I want, thanks.

umm, be careful, 96 SE rims are 15 x 6?! if so, 225-series may be stretching it...

I'm not putting the 225's on the 96 rims, I may be getting a set of 16x6.5s for a good deal but before I made a final decision I wanted to find out how wide of a tire I could put on them.
