Hello Peter,
Pay attention to the offset of the road wheel .
I don't think the wheel well will be the problem. Looks to be acres of room.
The standard (3" wide) narrow road wheel fitted with 155/14 tire just clears the tie rod end . Fitting a 165 size tire requires a 6mm spacer to allow clearance for the tire.
FWIW I fitted a 4.5" wide road wheel (MM traveler/ute) to fit a decent 155 tire, at 14" diamter.
This wheel has a safety bead and doesn't foul the tie rod end as fitted. It is close but no interference.
Have fun, please post your findings.
Salut
Bruce
