No, there is a 3.15% difference in overall diameter. This will cause your speedometer to be off 2 mph.
Yes, the 65 tire is only slightly taller.
Yes, you can
That is an acceptable swap but a much better choice would be 245/60-17 which is an excellent swap.
No, you cannot replace 215/65R17 summer tires with 225/60R16 winter tires, even if they are mounted on their own rims. The two tire sizes have different diameters and aspect ratios, which can affect the vehicle's handling, speedometer accuracy, and overall safety. It's important to use tires that are compatible with your vehicle's specifications as outlined in the owner's manual.
The 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer came standard with 215 65R 16 tires. The automobile manufacture offered 225 65R 17 tires as an option.
Yes, they will, - and if ever they won't , all tire shops will tell you. -They don't want to be responsible for fools fitting wrong tire/rim combinations.
The 65's will stand taller than the current 60's because this number represents the height of the tire as a percentage of the P195. Always consult your local tire dealer specialist, their advice is usually free of charge.
No it will not. If I understand your question correctly, the tire you are looking at is 15" in diameter and your rim is 16" in diameter. You need to buy tires that are made for your diameter wheel, 16".
Yes they could .
That is not a tire size.
No, if you are going to a 70 series tire then you will need to go with 195/70-15.
I have one and find the best size is 215/65R -15. Other acceptable sizes are 205/70 R-15 or 205/65 R-15.
