Some say "Yes", some say "No".

Maybe contact trebordelk and ask him --- he says they worked, on his '75.

If your car isn't super-low / slammed, and you don't use super-wide tires (205's), they will probably fit. But it's hard to say --- some people say there's more clearance on the late cars at the back, but I don't know why that would be.

I am thinking of going with 195 60 13's...

In that link I posted, trebordelk says he did 195 60's up front, 205 60's in the rear, no rubbing.

But I don't know what kind of suspension he had, etc.

Shoot him a PM - maybe he can give you some good info!

I tried it on my 72 tii (a set of 6") and the car wouldn't move. I think you can machine them or shim them to make them work, but it didn't occur to me back then

Can you explain in a little more detail?

Did you have some sort of interference with the calipers or something?

Strange that there are other 2002's out there on these wheels --- why would yours not be able to move?

I had mucho rubbing in the rear on my car lowered with H&R springs. Up front no problem with the 6" wheels, other than the fact that I needed a thin spacer to clear my big brakes. The offset is not ideal for an 02.

The tires were 195/60/13 all around.

If I remember right it was the same as Kris in Toronto, rubbing in the back and didn't clear my big brake conversion in the front. I just remember the car wouldn't move. It was lowered a 1".
