Yes but they will be close to the fenders and quarters.
Leaves you narrow tire choises..
I'm thinking no wider than a P205/60r15 on the front and rear..
For a non lowered car..
just a guess on the tire size..

I'm running 15x6 all the way around with 3 3/8 back spacing is I remember right. I have 195-60-15 front and 205-60-15 rear.
I do plan to try to get more rubber at the rear one day.
Mine is a 62. The tire fitment on a 65 is different. Hopefully more will speak up. I don't think you'll have too much trouble with the 7".

I have 14 x 7 in the back on my '65, but can't remember the backspacing. I'll go measure if no one else knows for sure. I have 235-60x14's on the back and it has appx 3/4" clearance inside and out.
