I have a 99 TM2720 using the 215 / R14 marathon tires.  I believe 205 / R14 are the OE spec. on the nameplate.   Our frame and box should be very similar except for a 1 foot length differential at the rear.

Take a good look at the cross frame member clearance and compare tire diameters.  You should be able to find this data.  The clearance might be small as a number of previous posts attest to this.  Mine is well under an inch but no rubbing marks prove this is OK.

Maybe a tire dealer will let you borrow a mounted tire to try.  Whatever you do, get rid of the Carlisles.
