Here's a little matrix I made balancing tire size, white wall size and price. These are from the Summit catalog.

I ended up going with the P215, which was a little smaller than I wanted but went with those due to price.

EDIT: I see you were asking about 15"; these are 14".

Here's a comparison of the earlier 5/8" stripe vs the new 1" ww.

I wasn't enamored at first but warmed up to the 1" when I reviewed my pictures from back in the day.

Again - note that these are 14".
