Both tires have received great reviews depending on what their used for. To help you with your decision what are you looking for, from this tire? (ie straight line grip, auto-x, all around performance, etc)
 
You won't get much lateral grip from those tires on a 6"-wide wheel. And the poor shmuck who mounts them will take you off his Xmas list.

Can I be blunt? You will never get a 3200# car to handle on 6"-wide wheels. It can't be done. I mean, sure, 215s will fit and be better than 205s, but you really want an 8"-wide wheel and 245s, although 7.5" will be OK.

A 6" is so narrow that a 205 already bulges on stock rims. Going to a 215 would would compromise handling since the sidewall is like this ( ) . I would stick with stock size, if you want wider tires get the proper wheel size to accommodate them.

Just my .02
