why are you after low profile tyres?
a standard replacement for 6.40x13 in a 225 would be 225/60r13 or 225/65r13  to keep the speedo accurate

on the other hand i not most shop do a 225/55r13 as i use to run then on another car

cant comment on that as i dont have or no any one with one,
but i run 205/55r15 front and 225/50r15 rear on my fc and its lowered 40mm (15x6" rims)
and i only rub when i hit big bumps, witch isn't very often,

if you rim offset is correct they should fit if not look at 215/65r13

Do a search on this forum or the FB/EK forum, I am sure this has been covered recently.
