TR6 rims are 5.5", measured in the usual fashion (between the bead seats).
I run them myself, work fine as long as you don't go too far overboard on
tire size. I run 205/55 tires, which do rub lightly in the rear on hard
corners.
This photo mostly shows the "compact spare" I use (mounted on a stock TR3
rim) so it fits in the spare tire compartment. But if you look closely,
there is a shiny stripe visible just above the top of the spare, which is
where the wide tires rub the fenders in a hard turn.
