I use Avon CR500 245/40/15's on my 9J 15" revolutions (I have them all round) and they fit the rim and fill the arches perfectly. Very grippy rubber with good we performance too

They are only available in two 15" sizes. 195/45/15 and 245/40/15 both should be fine for your 8" & 9" front to rear combo
