Default Proper sized Drag radial for LS Mesh wheels?

Anyone know what's a good size Drag Radial tire to fit on a LS mesh wheel? The car is just a weekend car, so I don't need a tire that will last forever. I figured this was the best forum section to ask.

I do have a set of Lenso wheels as well, but I'm not sure how safe they would be to roam around the street on. I was going to use them for slicks, but I suppose they could work with a DR too.

225-55-15 will fit but will hang over the edge of your 6" rim about an inch on each side....not good for handling but good for straight line traction. depending on the height of your car they may or may not rub your fenders. 205-50-15's fit without issues but are about an inch thinner
