215/75 15 was the stock size on my '96 Dak; it might be the same
for your GenIII. (Check on the driver's side door jamb for the sticker
which will list the tire size and inflation.) I went to a 235/70 15
on my Dak which has 6" rims; it would probably be possible to go a bit
wider, but there's not a lot of room on a 6" rim. Your '98 might have
the 8" rims though which can allow quite a bit more width.
