just wanted to know if 185/65R15 tires will fit on a 2000 tiburon fx
thx laugh.gif

 

Why are you going with a taller and narrow tire for? The stock is 195-55-15. It will look like you have bicycle tires on it.

 

this is just for the winter
I had a good deal on winter tires of this size and i was wondering if they would fit on my stock rims?

 

Stay with the stock size. If you go taller, you'll throw off your speedo. You can do a search on this if you want, similiar subjects have been covered often.

 

so ther is no way i can make this work??? 02.gif

 

They will fit on your rims but you better check to see if it won't rub against your fender. Going form a 55 to 65 is a big difference in height. It will feel like you've added lower gears. I wouldn't do it but it's up to you.

 

Ok thx guys I think I will skip on these ones
thx again wink.gif

 

The 185's would be 4.4% different than the 195's and will throw off your speedometer and odometer readings by that amount. See the numbers below. It's not a huge difference but you should try to stay as close to the stock numbers as possible.

Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Rev's Difference
195/55-381 107 mm 298 mm 596 mm 1871 mm 535 / km N/A
185/65-381 120 mm 311 mm 622 mm 1952 mm 512 / km 4.4%

I ran 175/65/14's for three winters on my Tib but they are a little closer to the stock size. Narrower is better when its comes to driving in snow.
