Don't think you'd be able to get a tyre skinny enough to stretch onto a 6" wide rim. If you want really low profile tyres, then you'll have to hunt high and low like John NI did for some 165/15/15's.

7" wide rims are the smallest width to got for stretching tyres imo. Anything less, as jr said, will look daft
