Tire size on stock wheels

What size tires come on the stock alum rims. I've got a set of these rims with 275/60 on them but would like to put the factory size on them. I'm thinking it might be 235/75 but not for sure. I'm guessing that these rims are 8".

The aluminum wheels were only 7" wide. Factory they came with 235/75/15 on them.

I have 295/50/16's on my 15x8's, but I am going with a 275/60's for my new tires.
