My Name is Chris. I am a tech at an undisclosed after market supplier. In my experience, I am very close friends with an Avon Rep., Avon introduced a new line of tire called he Cobra. Avon offers it in a 180/55/17. I know the sidewall is 5 millimeters /2 creates a lower profile. A lot of do it your selfer's are going this route. I have personally seen these tires mounted on the 2000-2007 "STOCK" Duece, with little to no clearance issues. Of course you want to check before you install.
