I had 205/60's on my car and the car sat 1" lower than stock.  Looked
neat but I kept hitting things and the speedo was 5% high.  Now I run 
205/70's.

Yes they will.  I bought a TR4 in 1983 which had TR6 seats.  No problem.
But don't try to put TR7 seats in there.  Although they are nice seats
they are too wide.

My wife says "how many of those things do you need?"  But then that's my
cross to bear.
