I have got a set of 235/60 14s on the back of my FE SEDAN with good clearance, without actually driving the car though.
I have a HR diff (same width as FE/C), the guards have not been rolled and these are on 14" Holden steelies that are about 10mm off the standard off-set. If you need the actual back space for the rim let me know.

If you rolled the guards, you could probably get a 245 under there, but any larger and I would say it would be scraping all the time.

From the back of the centre to the edge of the rim is 130mm or just a tad over 5 inches.
