The only rubbing issue on 9000 is in the front and not critical. Everywhere you could rub will be plastic or rubber. (Rubber patch on the inside and plastic front aero parts on the outside.) Not that 205x60x15 would rub to begin with. 205x60x15 is the same width and 0.2 inches shorter than 205x55x16. Therefore 205x60x15 would not rub. You could even go with a 225x55x15 without any noticable rubbing issues. All of this includes 1992 and down as well as the larger front fender newer models. Rim width would become and issue, ofcourse. The rear of a 9000 could use a 245x50x15 tire if you found a rim wide enough 7.5-8.5") with a ~25mm +offset.
