Tire Sizes

I have a 1958 F100. I'm keeping it as 'Stock Appearance '. I have 5 15" Innie wheels. I like the full wheelwell look so I'm thinking of putting on tall side wall tires. Would 205/85R15 fit in my fender openings? TIA

The biggest I have used was 235/75R15 and if I remember there was quite a bit of room. 85's would be just about 3/4-inch taller on the sidewall.

Thanks spurredon,
My truck had 235/75r15s on it when I got it. They are pretty old so I plan using them for paint tires and put new tires on it after its painted.
