Ben,
I just bought a set of B. F. Goodrich
T/A P215/50SR13, mounted them on Monza steel 13"x6"
wheels and then installed them on my 1975 Buick Skyhawk.
The clearance is very close on the inboard side, but
they do fit. A 1/4" spacer would be better. If you use
the spacer, I would recommend changing the wheel
studs to a 1/4" longer set. The stock studs have only
10 turns for the lug nuts to grab onto the threads
and the 1/4" spacer will use up 5 of those turns. Be
sure that your rear axle housing is centered before
fitting the tires. It is possible that you may have to
hammer in or grind some the material off of the frame
plate to get clearance on turns. I didn't have to do
this, but know of some who did. P205/60SR13 should fit
without a problem.
Good Luck,
Richard
