Better to go for rufty-tufty tyres that are readily available and competitive.
Seconded! :)

Thirded :ok

Full height ("80" profile) 205's on my Carrat alloys. Like the look, like the gearing :)

In reply to fitting 205x14. Just to let you know that i have them on my t25 and just lowering it -50mm still has clearence but quite tight, but not had time to run vehicle yet so proof is in the running ref clearences etc. Out of choice would always keep taller sidewall as more comfort ride and better top end (marginally). Will let you know outcome once trialled :ok Farrey55
