205/60/R15 Tires

Post by bulaian »

Would I have a problem running on tires these size? I know they're 3.4% larger in diameter so then my speedo will be a little bit off... but i mean like rubbing against the fenders or something?

If your not lowered it shouldnt be an issue, however...

I am lowered, and I have them for winter rims, and they do rub. When you turn the wheel all the way, they will grab your splash gaurds and make some noise, but the biggest thing is around corners the backs will rub against the fender.

Thanks guys. I got a sweet deal on some Hancook blackbirds, so they're going on the car tomorrow. I'm not lowered so hopefully there's no issues. If there is, I'll post again to let others know.
