I ran a set on my '74 TR6 during the late summer months before going to my
snow tires which reside on different rims (a true daily driver).
Rim offset is zero (0).
I was concerned about having the wheel extend past the fenders so went with
a 205-55 R16 for the first go around.
The tire size was selected to give the correct odometer reading with a 3.45
rear end.

When I put on my snow tires I was surprised to see that there was a small
amount of metal removed from the inside wheel weights (crimp on type). Prior
to installing the rims I removed some metal from the end of the upper A
frame to reduce the chance of hitting the suspension.
I'll look at the problem this spring but it could be that my wheel bearings
were a little too loose.
Hope the information helps.
