No, this is a very bad swap. Your speedometer will read 56.9 mph at a true 60 mph. Many other factors will be adversely effected. You can however go to a 175/60-15 or a 215/50-15 as long as you have no clearance issues with the wider 50 series tire.
You can but your speedometer will be off. Want to go wider then go with a 195/60-15.
The aspect ratio is the tires profile. For instance, a tire with a 60 aspect ratio means that the tires hight from tread to rim is 60% of the tires nominal width. The lower the aspect ratio # the wider the tire.
You can switch to a 215/50-15 or 175/60-15 if you can find any tires in these sizes. Other optional tires which are acceptable are 205/50-15 and 185/60-15 which you can find. My advice is to stick with the OEM size.
it will fit but the tire is wider and is taller in diameter. Your speedometer will be off.
Standard 215-60-R15 tires can be replaced with 215-50-R17 tires by first installing new rims. The vehicle may need to be raised with a suspension lift kit to achieve sufficient clearance.
215/75-15 225/70-15 235/65-15 245/60-15 265/50-15 Check for clearance issues on the 65, 60, & 50 series tires.
Yes you can use 205 60 r 16 tires in place of 205 50 r 16. They are only slightly higher.
Depending on which trim level it is: 205/60-16 Or 225/50-17 the rims and tires removed from the Mazda rx8 are 225/50-17
No, your speedometer will read 65.2 mph at 60 mph. You will also get less mileage due to the fact that the engine will be turning an additional 68 rpms at 60 mph. If you wish to go with a wider tire then go with a 235/65-15 or a 245/60-15 which will have no adverse effect.
You can install 205/60-15 or 215/50-16. Your choice.You can install 205/60-15 or 215/50-16. Your choice.
