Cliff,
If your tires are that old, I strongly recommend you buy a high
performace tire with crappy treadlife just to force you to replace them
every 5-6 years ;)
I had 205/60-13 on the rear of my Alpine... It was OK in the rear,
though pushing the width fit limit on a 5.5" rim. I think I had 185s in
front, so can't comment on 205 in front.
