Thread: 215 60 17

I know the right size for 17s are 235 55 17 but i found a set of new winter tires so dirt cheap and they are 215 60 16. Would I be able to run these without anything rubbing or throwing my speedo off?


edit: cars not lowered

no since thats close to the stock size

Stock tires are 26.7" in diameter. 215/60/16's are 26.1". Thats half an inch shorter. It would throw the speedo off, not much, but it would.

i think Thats a typeo
Thats 16 is suppost to be a 17 right?

they will fit fine and do better in the snow then a wider tire.

If its supposed to be a 17, then it is 27.1".

I can't say whether it will rub or not, but it as well will throw off the speedo some.

i agree with nick.

yeah i meant 215 60 17, But im currently running 215 60 16s maybe thats why my speedo is off a little bit

narrower is better in the snow, so yes
