I’ve just fit 235/75/15 but on a 8” 0 offset rim and have no running issues with a 30mm spacer. So I’d say you’ll be safe with a 205 or even 215 75 profile. Although my understanding is that a narrower tyre with a larger profile will suit better for off roading. Maybe a 195/80/15?
Though you should probably wait for a response from somebody a little more clued up than me regarding off-roading!

215/75r15 is the biggest that will fit without trimming and/or gearing changes. will fit standard wheels.
235/75r15 would require a 2" lift and some trimming, as well as some gearing changes to make it useable. Will fit standard wheels but will be a fair bit wider (more likley to pop a bead).
The above mentioned 15x8 rims will only fit in a 0 offset if spacers are used.

here is my 5 pence worth. Go here and dial in what you have, what you want and check diameters. it is not foolproof nor the be all and end all but it might help you.

Your 215 70 15 clear so 205 70 15 must clear as they are 'smaller' and 205 75 15 can be checkes on the site I listed for you.
Do it right - use Hammerite
