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 tire size 21575r15 with tire size 20565r15?

No, you cannot directly replace a tire size 215/75R15 with 205/65R15 because they have different dimensions. The 215/75R15 tire is wider and has a taller sidewall compared to the 205/65R15, which can affect the vehicle's handling, speedometer accuracy, and overall performance. It's essential to consult your vehicle's specifications or a tire professional to ensure compatibility and safety when changing tire sizes.


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.


What is the advantage of 215 65R15 to 205 70R15?

The advantage of the 215/65R15 tire over the 205/70R15 tire primarily lies in its wider width, which can enhance grip and stability, especially during cornering. The lower aspect ratio (65 vs. 70) of the 215 tire may also provide better handling and responsiveness due to a shorter sidewall. However, the 205 tire may offer a slightly smoother ride and better fuel efficiency due to its taller sidewall. Ultimately, the choice depends on the specific driving needs and preferences.
