Does a 215/65/16 tire fit fully inflated into a syncro clamshell with
little or no modification?

I've done quite a bit of research on this, but have conflicting
information.  Could those who have these size tires, and have tried
fitting them in the clamshell, respond?

fyi, I currently have the 27 x 8.5 R14 BFG TA KO's (diameter of 26.6"
and width of 8.5"), which just barely fit in the clamshell now.  I'm
considering the Nokian Hakka CS with the 215/65 size (27.0" and 8.7").
 (As an aside, the 205/65 size -- 26.5" and 8.2" -- supposedly does
fit).

Thanks much,
Bill
