    205/60/15 Would this change my stock height?

    I have an 8th gen Galant and I want to have a bit wider tires than the stock ones(195/65/15). I check on the sticky thread and no mention of 205/60/15. I want to maintain the stock height so I am wondering if this would fit the stick steelies off my Galant. Or should I stick with 205/65/15?

    i was riding on stock oem steelies with 215/60/15, and they were a bit taller as far as i knew, but they were much wider, than the stock 195's.

    If im not mistaken, I believe the first number is width.

    first number is width, second number it percentage of the width in hight, third number is the rim size

    Works like this AFAIK.

    195/65 = 195*.65 = 126.75mm

    205/60 = 205*.60 = 123mm

    So I want to find out the ~4mm would make a difference. If its really 4mm in height difference?

    theres no difference in height thats noticable....you'll still have the big gap youre looking for.
