Kool Sonoma, I'd stick to the 245/60-15 on the front and the 255/60-15 on the rear. The 235/70-15 will look to tall and may hit the fenders around corners. The sidewall hight is almost 1.5 inches taller.

The 255/60-15 and the 245/60-15 are close the same diameters as your stock tires 205/75-15 on them now and your ABS will not run in to any problems as all the tires are within 3% rotation ratio to one another. Optional size I'd get would be the 235/60-15 on the rear, 215/65-15 on the front to give it that old school SS look or go with the all 235/60-15 or 215/65-15 all the way around so you can rotate the wheels from front to back.

Most larger tire shops will have different used tire size for you to try on your rims to do a test fit when your ready to buy the tires. Log on to http://www.tirerack.com/tires/index.jsp and see what type of tires are out on the market and average price.
