tire clearance on 80Q

[McCohens at aol.com]

Just got a set of 205-55-16's for my '90 80Q and have extreme tire rub.  The 
springs appear to be non stock, not sure what they are.  Should these tires 
fit?  Can someone measure the compressed spring height on their 80/90Q so I can 
determine how low this car is?  The records show Spax struts and springs, but 
I suspect the springs were also cut to further lower the car.
TIA
