Does anyone know from firsthand experience whether or not a 900-16 (or 305-85R-16) tire fits on the front axle of a 61-71 W200 without hitting the front wheel opening sheet metal? There appears to be plenty of room in the sweepline box wheel well for mounting such tires on the rear axle. Only the front axle mounting looks iffy, especially at or near full articulation at half lock (half turn) of the steering, when the tire is pointed directly at the wheel well sheet metal. I will be using stock wheels and will have new springs installed. Thanks!
