Tire sizes..

Postby uha1 » Sat May 19, 2007 9:12 pm

hey guys,
I have a 00 solara SE v6, and I have 215 60r 16 tires on the car right now. which is not normal. they were supposed to be 205 60 16. when I went to a tire store, they told me that these are not the appropriate tire to your rims. you are supposed to have 205 60 16. and they told me that it would even do harm to car. But honestly I really do like my tire size 215 looks nice.

So what do you guys think? should I carry on with my tires or get them all changed to original size?

Tire size wont harm your car, but it will change your speedometer readings.

Here is a calculator to find tire sizes close to oem speedometer readings.
