Default 1971 Mustang Grande New Wheels. Which fit?

Hello everyone, I'm back again with another question from someone in The Netherlands. He wants to change the current wheels with some nicer once: Magnum 500's.

Current tire size:
Front: 235/60/15
Back: 235/70/15

New tire size:
Front: 235/60/15 (or 225?)
Back: 245/60/15

Question now is which size rims he needs to match those tires: 15x7's? or 15x8's in the back? And which would be better, 225's or 235's in the front?
