Funny you should mention the 215/60 -14. since I was just looking at this.  My 
first thought was if I cound run 215s on the stock wheel (14x6J ??).  But from
what you're saying it's not a problem. I believe the 15 inch stock wheels were
15x6J mated to 205s (late 80s era 100-200) but, I wasn't sure how handling 
would be affected.

thanks for the input
