205 tire + 5in wheel

I have a 2wd 1991 Toyota truck. It has 14 X 5 in wheels, and the stock tire size is 195/75 14. At tirerack.com, they say I can run 205/75 14 on them. Will 205s fit? Well?

Thanks.

Should be fine. The 205's are only a total of 1/2" (1/4" per side)wider and not even 5/8" larger diameter overall (25.5" vs 26.1"). Check the existing clearances to verify, but it is a very minor change.

I have a 1993 2wd truck, and the truck was given to me with 205 tires on the 14" rim. I have had no problems with it since i got the truck back in 2001. Go for it!
