Icon5 I need help on sizing tires

Whats up guys. It's been awhile since I've been on. I just had a quick question about rims and tires. Ok here we go. I have 16x7 rims, and P225/75R16 tires on my jeep right now. I want to go down to 15" rims. If I go to 15" rims. What size rims do i get? 15X7's right? And I have no clue where to start with the tires? What size would get me to the stock size? Is the a chart or something to look on? Basically I want to down size my rim, and get tires that would be closest to p225/75R16......

you can do 15x8, I have 15x8-31x10.5 and I believe it's just a little over stock not sure,and of cours 8" wide is obviously wider but I'm talking about the tire height. but their is a thread that tells you tire sizes with stock, or lift. I'll try to find it.

Thanks for the tire chart. But it's for the jeep lol......Im not trying to go bigger. Just staying around the stock size thats all. I want to run a 15" rim, I just don't know what size tire that will fit on a 15" rim and be close to the stock tire of P225/75R16
