Any clearance problems with a stock suspension?

Unfortunately, 13 inch performance cars are becoming harder  and harder to 
find.  This is  because most cars these days are coming with larger and larger 
rims.  The  exception is the cheap econo-boxes which nobody in his  right mind 
would put performance tires onto.  So lack of demand is causing  the 
manufacturers to discontinue those sizes. 
I went  to 15" Panasports on my Honda Powered Spit and mounted 205/50R15 
KUHMO ECSTA Supra sport radials.  The circumference is  almost an axact match  
to 
the tires I have on my other Spit (Pirelli 175/70R13) so going to those  
should not radically  affect your speedometer accuracy.

All, 
I am planning to buy some Panasports for our newly purchased 1972  GT6.   
They  
are 13x5.5.  What tires  are those of you with the  same set  up  running? 
Thanks for your help.
