Best Answer

No, this is a poor swap as this tire is way too small a diameter. Your handling, ride, fuel mileage, and power will suffer. Your speedometer will also read 62.7 at a true 60 mph. If you wish to go to a 60 series tire then install 235/60-15 which is a very good substitute.

Can you substitute 215 75 R15 tires for 205 65 R15 tires?

No, this is a very bad swap. Your speedometer will read 55.2 mph and a true 60 mph. You're handling, braking, and ride will be adversely effect. You would have to go with a 185/75-15 tire in order to have an acceptable substitute in a 75 series tire. If your vehicle is 65 series tires installed from the factory there is no way you should go to a 75 series tire. You can go to a 70 series tire if you install size 195/70-15 which is an acceptable substitute.

No, that tire will be too small in diameter and your speedometer will be off 3.375%, which will be about 2 mph at 60 mph. Never install a tire that is over 3% different from the original OEM size.
