Default A QUICK QUESTION REGARDING TIRE WIDTHS

I was just wondering if one of you knowledgeable people could list a few of the advantages and disadvantages of running a 175/65/15 winter tire in place of the stock 185/60/15 ones. Mounting them on the stock 15"x6" rims shouldn't be a problem right? And is there anything else that I should know be it a safety issue or something other? Your help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks a lot for your input, it's very much appreciated! I bet those 17's look great. As far as the sidewall goes, it should only be ever so slightly higher so I don't anticipate any problems there. Thanks again, cheers.

Stock 15's? Also, if the 185/60s fit, so will your 175/65s. 2mm difference on the sidewall. Dunno about the width, though. It's winter time. That means winter tires.
