Tires again!
Picked up an orange '75 the other day. Nice car, but with original rusty steel wheels. Put on an old set of Empi 8 spoke copies and like the look. The wheels have 195/60/15 tires on them. Tires have 1/8th inch clearance at the rear fender. My question is , do you think a205/60/15 tire would fit the rear with this wheel? Thanks, Pete

strictly by math, no (0.125 inch - 0.2inch {~5mm) = 0.080 interference). however, tires can be so different from one model to the next that maybe you need to have them fitted to see.
