I would think 11" - 12" rims under the stock turbo fenders without any spacers.

I ran 255/45-15 and 345/35-15 Yokos on 9&12x15 for years until the tires became NLA.

The setup would not fit without modification:
- Euro ride hieght
- Cut fender lips off
- Moved oil lines on passenger's side
- Ground off alignment adjust bolts and half the nuts on swing arm
- Custom spacers for each side to locate wheel/tire perfectly
IMPORTANT NOTE - at 13.5" Yoko 345 tires are 3/4" wider than Pirelli 345 tires. Huge difference.

You certainly need the correct offset.I have a 335/35/15. I don't have rims yet
But from what I can measure it will fit.
