How much taller is a 215 tire compaired to a 205?
If they have the identical aspect ratio and wheel diameter as comparing a 215/70-15 to a 205/70-15 the 215 tire will be .56" taller.
Will 215 65R 17 size tire fit same rim as 215 60R 17?
Yes, the 65 tire is only slightly taller.
205 55r 16 tires vs 215 55r16?
The only difference is that 215 tires are taller. The first number in the name (215) indicates the tire sidewall height, the second part (55) is the tire tread width, the third part (r) shows that the tire is a radial tire, and the fourth part (16) indicates the rim size.
Can substitute 265 tire for 215 tire?
Unlikely, it's MUCH wider.
Can 215 60 r15 tires substitute 215 70 r15 tires for a 2001 dodge caravan?
The tires have different circumferences, so the speedometer will be off. the middle number (60 vs 70) is a percentage of the first (215) and is high tall the sidewall is. So the sidewall on the 60 tire is 69.5 mm, while the 70 tire is 75.5 mm. That translates to the 70" tire being about one inch taller than the 60 tire. The speedo can be calibrated to match the new tires by some tire shops, but they will probably charge you for the calibration.
I have the chance of a spare wheel having a 205 55 16 tire but will a 215 60 16 tire fit that wheel to match the others on my car in case I get a puncture the response below does not answer my query?
Tires on the same axle should match if all 4 are not the same. The 215s are an inch taller (or thereabouts) than the 205's. the taller ones should go on back if you have 2. However, this does not answer the question raised as to whether a 215 60 16 tire will fit on the same wheel that currently has a 205 55 16 tire ! Hopefully someone knows the answer.
How much taller is a 215 tire vs a 205?
Depends on the aspect ratio of the tire. For instance a 215/70-16 and a 205/75-16 are almost the exact same diameter with the 205 tire being 1/4" larger in diameter because it has a larger aspect ratio. For all practical purposes they are the same height. I would have to know the aspect ratio of both tires to answer the question.
Can you replace a 215 70R16 tire with a 215 65R16 tire?
Yes, you can but your speedometer will be 1.8 mph to fast. A much better swap would be 225/65-16.
can a 205 tire be substituted for a 215 tire?
Yes it can.
What is difference between 215 60 r16 and 215 55 r16 tires?
The 215/55-16 tire is 3.24% (.85") smaller in overall diameter than the 215/60-16 tire. It is never advisable to go over 3% difference. Stick with the OEM size as recommended by the manufacture of your car.
Will tire chain size 215 60r15 work on 215 70r15 tire?
I tried to fit the chains for a 215/70R15 on a 215/60R15, and the chains were too large. I suspect in your case the chains will be too small.
