7" wide is pretty wide to clear on a Type 3.

Just so you know there are 8 different types of phone dials so asking if some 15x7" fit is a pretty vague question. You at least need to know the offset or the ET is marked on the wheel

I would guess either 15x7 et 52 or most likely 15x6 et 36.
i have both, they look the same on the outside just 7's are deeper on the inside.
