1970 911 T Wheels and Tires

What would you guys say are the stock fuchs wheels and tires for a 1970 911 T.
I dont know how to measure the wheel width with the tires on them but they are 14 inch fuchs wheels and the tires are pirelli P 195/60 R 14 P500s. They look pretty good on the car but it looks like i could have an inch wider and still fit in the fender well. how many inches wide do you think the fuchs wheels are that i have?

The stock sizes for your car when new were 14 x 5.5, 14 x 6, and 15 x 6. If you not interested in winning concurs, a 16 x6 will also fit.

If you are willing to pay for VERY pricey 15 x 7 R wheels, then you can gain another inch in width without modifying your wheel wells. Almost all (99+%) of the 15x7 wheels you see for sale are NOT the "R" wheel.

Any wider and you will need to widen your wheel wells.
