I'm running on 205/75's to keep the wheel wells full and the speedometer
reasonably correct. Sort of regretted not buying 215/70s, now feeling
better.

I run the 215/70's on original steel wheels. Honestly, they're a bit too
wide, and I get finder rub when backing up and turning. No doubt my
front
suspension is pretty lose, but I'll drop back to the 205/70's next time.
I
also get a little to much rubber debris on the lower rear quarter after
a
long run.
