The main difference between 215 and 205 tires is their width; a 215 tire is 10 millimeters wider than a 205 tire. This increased width can provide better traction and stability, particularly in cornering and wet conditions. However, it may also affect fuel efficiency and handling characteristics, depending on the vehicle and driving conditions. Additionally, the overall diameter and aspect ratio of the tires can also influence performance and compatibility with specific vehicles.
