This is the size used by VW on early 90's Passat models. Difficult to find, and VERY pricey. Let me know what you find. I have a Passat and had to compromise with a slightly narrower 60 style. (same diameter).

I recently bought tyres for my 7" cookie wheels and I bought
201-60-15

A lot of peopele here uses 225 in 7" then you can use it, for me don´t looks correct.

Ok,

up
cookie cutter 7" with 215 55 15 pirelli

down
cookie cutter 7" with 205 60 15 michelin


the 205 look wider maybe because the wall is higher

same size numbers From brand to brand change in measurements.
You can look in the tyres web pages the exact size that have each tyre.

The only advice that I can give you is:

Took out one of your wheels (rim), Go to the brand dealer of your choice and change diferent size of tyres until you find a tyre that like you, size, pattern and looks.

hope this helps

regards
