205/65/15s will they fit
I found a bunch of Michelin rally racing tires cheap but there 205/65/15s wondering if they will fit on a Beretta or if they will rub on the strut. I'm doing off road racing so these tires would be great if they would fit?

The 65 aspect ratio is going to be hideous. (Tall)
But they should fit on a 15 X 7 crosslaced rim ok

Its a race car so don't care what they look like just gotta fit. Would they work with stock 15in wheels??

Yes! But your FDR (gearing) will suffer.

Re: 205/65/15s will they fit
I don't see any problems with that ratio, as I've been considering the same for my Corsica, once I get the N-Body brake swap done.
I'm not a big fan of the "Big Wheel-Low Profile Tire" look that's been popular the past decade. I may only be 28, but I like more sidewall like the old-school crowd.
Might be because I live in rural Labrador though, which doesn't take kindly to that kind of setup. I've heard of many people being stuck in town with their cars because of how hard the gravel highways are to their fancy big rims and low profile tires.
