Will 205/65R/15 tires fit on a 2000 Accord EX?
I have a good set of winter tires on steel rims for a 1998 V6 3.0L Accord EX size 205/65R/15, the rims have a 5 bolt pattern.
My sister has a 2000 4cyl 2.3L Accord EX with 195/65R/15 tires on it. They are only on a 4 bolt pattern.
My question is, if I get a set of 4 bolt steel rims for her car, will my 205/65R/15 winter tires fit on her car for next winter? The only difference being the 205 vs. the 195 size? Would they be apt to wear more or is there any other reason to not use them over the stock 195 size?
Thanks.

Your car should have 205/60/16 tires though if it's a V6...did you swap on 15" wheels to it? These tires would not fit on a 15" wheel.
The new tires would cause the speedometer to read 2% slow - so at 60mph (speedo) you're actually going 61.2mph

Yes, both 15" wheels. The 1998 V6 Accord has 205/65R/15 tires as stock. I just wanted to know if mounting the 205/65R/15 snow tires on the 2000 Accord that calls for 195/65R/15 tires is a good idea or if I'm risking having some issues...?
The 1998 wheels are: 6 cyl (5 lug), 15x6-1/2, steel
The 2000 wheels are: 4 cyl (4 lug), 15x6, steel
Thanks.

You won't notice any real difference in performance between the two tires.

Thank you. Does anybody know if I'll have any clearance issues with the 205's? I don't want to go through the trouble and expense of taking the 205's off the 5 lug rims and mounting them on the 4 lug and then have clearance issues. Thanks.

There is such a minimal difference between the two tire sizes that you will not see an issue. This isn't like tossing on some mud swampers onto an Accord. You're going from an 6th Gen Accord to a 6th Gen Accord.

And if for some reason you're still unconvinced -
Here's a sample from TireRack with the tire dimensions and measurements: (Note whatever tires you have may be slightly different, but the point is they're ridiculously close in size)
https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...mCompare1=yes#
It is .3" wider (sectional width) between the sidewalls
It is .2" wider (tread width) between the tread (inside to outside)
It is .5" larger in diameter which equates to it rotated ~15 times less per mile.
