In any case, you are better off having the paint supplier shop analyze your existing paint and match it rather than having them mix it to a code and hope it matches the way they mixed it the first time.
Well, I worked on the spouses Honda. Why? Because Jiffy Lube forgot to bolt the belly pan back on all the way and it fell off and was dragging under the car. Thankfully no other damage was done as she was wise enough to stop and call me.
Jiffy Lube $%#@&!
Putting on the red paint on the two-tone red/white on my 57 Dodge Coronet. Doors and fenders shot today. Almost done!
It's been a long and winding road.
I'm running 245/60/15 on an 8" wheel with 4" offset. They do not rub.
I would not go to a smaller tire. It looks good as is. Wider tire = better traction. Your easiest solution is to put a few rounds into the Torsion bars, which in my opinion, will also make the car feel better when driving it.
FWIW, these mounts flex from the factory. If you put a dial indicator on the mount and turn the wheel you can measure it.

I have been following him since the early Soundgarden Days when they used to plaster every light pole in town...
He is here in Silverlake WA.... not sure you wanted to go that far. With me, he wanted to see the actual condition of the parts to give an accurate actual quote.
I was more trying to give you an indication of cost. I can PM you info if you want to give it a go.
Last year I had a guy here straighten and buff about 24 pieces of stainless for my 57 Dodge. I didn't even think a few of pieces could be saved... he glanced at them and shrugged it off as "no problem". It was $1300 and worth every penny.
