I've got 6.5x15s on the front and 7x15s on the rear all with 205/60 tires. I experience mild rubbing on the rears when cornering hard. I think going down to 195/60s should stop the rub for me but at the edge, every car and driver is going to perform differently.

Garth , would you mind sharing pictures of your car especially from the side
205/60/15 is stock 240Z size about 1" taller than stock , I know they will fit since I've seen Mike young run 185-75-14 which is slightly larger and runs them lowered in the front , but he's running that on stock wheels but you have larger wheel with more aggressive stance so I'd love to see this
I'm planning to run 205/55/15s on my new wheels
