While the wheel fits, care needs to be taken not to fit a tyre of excessive height. For example, 185/60R15 tires are more than 2" taller than stock size 12" tires. And 205/60R13 are less than 1" taller than stock.

Whether a 13", 14" or 15" diameter wheel, if the tyre diameter is too tall, it will hit right here:
Open in new window


That didn't hit because the tyre was too tall, that was because the track was substantialy increased with both Stanza struts, LCA, and 13x7 -7 wheels. It didn't foul there with the same tyre on a 13x6 +19 Globe.

The 205/60x13 tyre used there is the same height as the 6.00 R12 tyre the Datsun 1200 had as original equipment. The change to radial tyres saw them use the smaller diameter 155SR12 for some reason. This is why the speedo reads fast witht he standard tyres and ismuch more accurate with the 205/60 tyre. The car was originally designed for this height tyre.
