I had 205 last summer and they were fitting good. I think they were 205/65/15. But since yours are higher and dirt tires, I'm not so sure they would'nt touch the struts. :?

Stock wheels? Offset will play a major role.

I tried some Forester wheels and tires on the rear of my SS just for fun (same size as what you're looking for). They just barely touched the rear spring perches. I can try and take a pic to show how close they are. I imagine if you don't have perches, there won't be a problem. I didn't try them on the front of the car though. Raise your car up as high as you can with the coilovers and I bet you'll be ok.
