22 Series Tire Size Question

Howdy Packard Fans,

Pretty sure new tires are in order soon. I currently have "Coker Classic" 4-Ply WWW L78-15 on my 2272 and spent a little time on the Diamond Back site as they seem to have nothing but satisfied customers. Using their nifty size chart, I get the idea that my current tires are about an inch taller than stock.

I thought I'd call on the collective wisdom here on whether to stick with what would now be a 235-75R15 or return to a 225-etc. Anyone able to double-check my understanding of these tire sizes off the top of their head?

Heck, anyone want to just point me to the right Diamond Backs for my car? I gotta say all the family talk on their website and the chatter about why their tires are the best... well I just ate that right up.

I'm looking forward to being able to track a straight line with this beast of a car.
