Default Tires????


Will 205/60R15 tires fit on my 00 SL1? Will they be too big?

Do you still have the stock 14 inch rims?

If so, no.

No I have 15" ASA aftermarket wheels but I want to use them for the winter with that size tire. I was just wondering if the 205/60R15 would be to big?

For winter/snow, you want to use narrowest tires as possible... it'd be great if you still have those 14 inch wheels.

Do you think the 205/60R15's will fit? I don't want them to rub. I don't drive it very much so I am not worried about how they will work. I just need to know if anyone has put this size on there car or knows if it will work.
Thanks Jeff

I think a 205/55/15 would work a lot better for you and keep you closer to an overall stock diameter.

Here's a tire calculator to help out and picking tires.
