my rims are not stock, would those tires still fit, ? would the  larger  
tires affect the ride, which is wonderful now..thankls  bob


 
It shouldn't affect the ride, but tire clearance could be an issue  IF your 
car is lowered, depending on the rim choice.
On my 65 Notch, and my 71 SquareVert, I'm running 195-60-15's up  front, 
and 205-65-15's on the rear. No issues with rubbing or the ride (I  watched 
the offsets). I also run 19 psi front, and 26 psi rear, with 1/16th  inch toe 
in. No problems with tire wear either. : )
