okay, the weather is getting terrible up here, and im on decent tires for summer driving. i cant afford brand new winter tires, but i found a good deal through my dads freind for some, $200 for 4 brand new blizzaks on rims, but the rims wont work on my car since they are 5 bolt. now im wondering if these will fit on my car.

i have 195/55R15's and these tires are 205/60R15's. does anyone know if these will work fine on stock ride height?

thanks in advance

Steve

 

I don't see why that wouldn't work, it should with no problem. It'd only make them a little thicker and wider. Are you on factory suspension?


Are these good tires for winter? Make sure their tread design is made for it.

 

complete stock suspension, and there brand new, and really good winter tires to boot.

 

They will work fine. Keep in mind prices to get them mounted and balanced though.

 

yah i can do that for free at my work, or go by my old school my auto teacher lets me use the shop whenever i want.

 

They should work with stock ride height just fine, however, your speedometer will be reading a bit lower than you are actually traveling. Reason is your new tires are going to be slightly taller than the stock size, so they will move the car farther with each revolution.

When your speedo reads 60, you will be traveling 63.2 mph.
