I don't have any pictures, but here's a tire size calculator you can play with.

You don't say what your goal is, but if it is for a "stock look", I believe the 6's has 14" wheels.

With 15" wheels, 185/70s are about a half inch shorter than the stock 4 cylinder 165/82s. 195/70s would be the same diameter as the stock 4 cylinder tires.

Keep in mind that the ride height in any pictures you get will influence the "look" greatly.
