Another tire sizing question!?!

I have a 1971 911 with no flares. I recently bought 15x6 cookie cutters for it, upgraded from 14X5.5 fuchs (will be for sale soon). The old tires on the cookie cutters are 205 60 15's. I put them on the car, but am afraid they will rub over bumps. It looks close. I am buying new tires regardless. What are you folks using? I like the wide tires, but don't want to modify the fenders or anything else. Thanks

They should fit fine. I had 205/60-15s on 6x15 Fuchs on my '76 a long time ago and they fit with no problems at all.

I have 205/60/15's on my unflared 73T and they work just fine.
