Is anyone running Michelin XWX 185/70/VR15 front and 225/70/VR15 rear on stock wheels? I would like to see photos to see how they look if you are running them

GREAT looking car! Do you know if it had the 215 or 225 rear tires on it? I am trying to find the biggest looking replacements for the original Arrivas on my car. Thanks!
Mine had 225 XWXs on the rears when I got it. The 215s would be too narrow. Actually, I think the 225s are too narrow as well, but that's it when you go XWX.
