Default Fuchs 15 x 6 or x 7 with track rubber (borrow)

Gang:

I would like to borrow two 15 x 7 or 15 x 6 wheels with 205/50, 205/55, or 205/60 track rubber on them to get some measurements on my 356.

I am running the car at Daytona next year and need taller gears. I have sets of 195 / 60 rubber on 15's and am looking for larger rear wheel / tire combos. I have hit tirerack, discount tires, all of the competition tire sites, Sasco motorsprts and Bob Woodman tires for tire specs but wanted to try a "live" demo before ordering.

I am only looking for a minor overall tire diameter increase (.5" to 1.0") versus what I have now. The issue will be tread and section width of the 205s on either the 7 or 6 inch wheel. (and either the 55 or 60 series fitting)

Let me know if you can help out. I promise to get the wheels / tires back ASAP and you can rest assured there will be no tire testing as it is a track car and the neighbors wouldn't be to pleased with me "buzzing" around the block.

Thanks.

Jason
