15x6.5, and they seem to work just fine.

Thanks. I was discussing tire sizes with some other people and one
person was wondering about going with 205/50/15's on a 6" rim, so I was
checking to see if you had done that, or as I suspected, you had gone
with a slightly wider wheel to match the 205 series tires.

Well, those are the aftermarket wheels that have been on the car for
years. Before ordering 205s, I did check the specs: the recommended
range is 5.5-7.5, and the specs were measured on a 6.5 wheel.
