TR6 Standard TR6 Tires?

Howdy gents --

I've been thinking of getting a set of TR6 wheels for my TR250. My steel wheels are 5", and I know that TR6 wheels were 5 1/2". Can I use my relatively new set of 185/R15s that I have on my 5" wheels on 5 1/2" wheels? Or put another way, what tires were standard on a TR6? Thanks as always!

185/15's were standard, they equate to about an 80 or 75 series profile in modern tires. I see no problem at all running your 185' on 5 1/2's.
