Default help with 97 v-6????

hey guys new to the forum here,and had a question about tires and rims,i read thru alot of post but i didnt see anything that addressed this question,i`m wanting to buy a set from american muscle for my wifes 1997 v-6 stock mustang,but the guys at a/m cant answer this question with any certainty, and everything i`ve read on the website seems different from her`s..... her car came with and are still on it the original tire size and rims which is 205/65/15 what im wanting to kno before buying (cause there arent any returns) is if these tires will fit "without rubbing" can anybody answer this for me? thnx in advance for any and all help. p.s or for that matter could u go bigger than below on a stock mustang not GT? thnx again troy

You won't get any rub at all with 245's. You can go bigger if you want, and you'll still be fine. I'd at least get 17's. 16's will look pretty small in my opinion.
