I have 205-75-15 radials on mine. I would think you would be okay. Mount one and check for any rubbing or clearance problems.

215/70-15 on my '61.

I do get a very occasional rub against the inner side of the left rear wheel well - pretty minor.. but come to think of it, it may have stopped when I installed new shocks.
