tire size/fitment

is there anyone running 205/60's up front on the stock 15's and if so how do they handle? how much room do you have from the edge of the wheel well to the tire? i only ask becuase my k member has a small dent in it that puts my tire on one side back like 2 inches and i want to know if ill clear. i gotta get that new k member though badly. thanks and i did search but didnt find anything on these tires maybe i didnt search right.

i'd fix the problem, not buy $150-200 worth of tires instead of spending $30 at a junkyard to get a good piece....kmembers are everywhere in junkyards in camaros with no engines. super easy to disassemble.
