'86-92 have smaller front fenders, with stock ET27 offset on the 16x6.5 Aero-type wheels anything larger than the OE 205/50-16 will rub (in my experience, even a 205/55-16 will mangle itself on the fender-lip studs if they're not cut flush with the nuts, if they are you'll just get occasional contact.)
The CS-body (93-up US, 92-up Euro) cars' front fenders are roomier.
I believe the Ronals are ET35 offset or thereabouts, you definitely do *not* want spacers. A 225/50-16 should fit on the later cars, maybe even on the earlier ones but it'll be tight.
