It's not so much the rim size thats important, but more the tire size. In order to ensure that i get the right sizes fir my car, i abandon the concept of running one size all round & my front tyres have been smaller than the rear for the last 28 years on every car i have owned.
I do not know the original tyre size for your Sunny, so i can't look up the outside diameter, but the 205 x 60 x 15 is listed at an outside diameter of 602mm & i suspect that this diameter will foul on your inner guards when you turn. It might be OK for the rear, but probably not for the front.
If you post your original tyre size, i will offer up recomendations.
The 205 x 60 x 15 was DESIGNED for a 5 1/2" wide rim, & the permissable rim width range is from 5 1/2" right out to 8", although it would probably look a bit silly on anything wider than 7"
!000's, 1200's & 120Y models used a 12" tyre that measured 552mm OD & a 185 x 60 x 13 matches this exactly, so on a 5 1/2" or 6" rim, these are recomended for those models for street use. I use 205 x 60 x 13 on the rear & these measure 576mm OD
Replacing worn shocks is always a good move.
