Question on a certain tire size for our cars....

Post by rikymaru »

Hey, I have found a great deal on a set of rims and tires.<P>They are 17" Momo Arrow rims..but its the wheels that bother me.<P>The measurements are 215/40/17<P>Is that good enough for our cars? Most people Ive seen in the registry are using 205 isntead. Im just wondering if it makes a huge difference.
Elena, don't misunderstand. A pro isn't someone who sacrifices themselves for their job. That is just a fool.

I'm not sure but your speedometer might be off. if it is a shop should be able to adjust it for you.

On whalentire.com if you type in the model of your car and the size of the tire...it tells you if the speedometer will read ok. When I typed in 215/40r17 for MX-3 it said that at 60mph your Speedo will read 59.2 mph not much of a difference
