I have a set of Cookie Cutters with some 205-75R15s (
27.1") that I put on from time to time. My fenders have been rolled but to get the fronts to clear I had to loosen the little piece of bodywork behind the bumper bellows and slide it as far forward as the holes would allow. Also I raise the front suspension 3-1/2 turns. (
To keep from screwing up the corner balance count the turns exactly so you can return it exactly to the original setup.)
It is kind of fun because the knobbies have just a "suggestion" of directional stability so when you toss the car it slews so you have to actually drive the rotational speed of the car's mass. (
Also it seems to annoy some Porsche snobs without really changing the car!)
