I got a '95 240 and I would stick to 215 . I went to 225 before and the front rubbed messing up my wheel bearings. But you the rear should be fine with 225, I think it can handle 235 (not sure though).

how thin?

Currently I am running 215/55, it was 225/50.

if you have an s14 a 205-55-16 is the best fitment for the thin 6.5" wide wheels...

an S-12 can use a 205-5515 on the stock 6" wheel, and it works nicely, and there's more sticky tires available.

the problem with 225-50-16 is that they're too wide forthe rim, its not an unsafe fitment..just not "good" IMO since the bead gets pinched...

how about 225/55/16 for the rear?

taller, so there's more sidewall to allow for bead pinch effect, but still too wide for the stock rollers!
