61/2j vs 6j Rims

[Diesel 617]

Discovered my 280SE comes with 61/2j rims, I just ordered 195/75R14 tires. Will these tires fit the bigger rim without issue? Or would it be safer to send the tires back and get 205/70R14s?

they should be fine

Для 6 1/2 лучше 215/70, на моем 280 се обода 6 и шины 205/70

They'll fit. You can go up to a 215 on a 6.5 if you want. I think they'll even accept a 225, but that size changes the suspension geometry a little.
