I've been looking at rims and tires for a few months and I have a pretty good idea what I want. However I'm not sure if the tires I am looking at are gonna be strong enough to carry this heavy of a car.

B.F. Goodrich Radial TA 205/60-15.

I guess I need to know what that tire is capable of and what the weight of my car is.
1967 Newport, 4 door, base.

Also any other help/thoughts would be appreciated.

The wheels I'm looking at are Pacer Supremes 15x7, 5x4.5

Hopefully I'm correct on sizing and bolt pattern, but feel free to correct me.
 
According to B.F. Goodrich's chart for Radial T/A tires, a 205/60-15 load limit is 1301.
So you're good for 5200+ pounds.
Those Pacer Supreme wheels are a nice looking wheel.
The 5X4.5 bolt circle is correct, too.
