Default Re: Quick Question

205/55-15 would be a better fit than 205/60-15.

And stickied at the top of this forum is a topic titled

Forum Rules and FAQ - READ BEFORE POSTING

It says:

Which is why the title has been changed from "Quick Question".

Oh okay.

Will i have problems using 205/60r15's on my wheels?

The tires are a gift bought for me by a friend, i just wanted to get her to cancel the order before it's too late if there were problems.

They're too large in diameter for your car.

Acceleration will be decreased, speedometer and odometer will be inaccurate, and tire rubbing is much more likely to occur.

Its important to preserve the factory tire diameter.

It would be almost half an inch (0.4724" to be exact to 4 decimal places) increase in diameter...not that it matters anymore since this thread is super old...
