6 1/2" Ronal Wheels on a w123?

I acquired a set of Ronal Bundts that are 6 1/2" (as opposed to 6" which is what I have on all my 123's.) The tire size on the wider rims is identical, 195 70 14. Will I encounter any difficulties or problems with the wider rims with that tire size on a 123?

Thanks!

I doubt it. Most bundts I'm aware of have same or similar offset, so if you have 1/2" of clearance around your tires and wheels in the wheel well at full lock you'll be fine. Get the ET number of both wheels to be sure, though.

I had a set from a 6.9 on my W123 240D many years ago.
The 6.5" rims cleared the suspension, no problem.

The 215/70 14" tires just beaaaarly rubbed.
