Hi all

We have a 2012 Accent GLS here with stock 195/50/16's

140,000 & going strong, although she has developed a louder than average engine tick.....

It's time for new tread again.........My wife would like a softer, quieter ride!

My question is has anyone put 195/55/16 tires on the stock rims with out any problems??

I believe this would help for a softer ride.......



Thanks

John

Considering these....we do have a separate set of winter wheels already.

You shouldn't just put bigger tires on the rims. Get some 15" wheels first and get a matching set of 195 55 15 tires. Or drop to 14" rims and 185 65 14.

You'll have no trouble with fitment on those tires, but your speedometer will register slower than your actual speed by a few mph.
