I searched n could not find if they will fit. I see u guys using 205/55R15. Which to me seems like the ones I got would fit but I need a def yes or no I can get a set for 100$. I have them right now from a bud but before I go and put them on I wanna know. Cuz if not they will go back n I will not buy them.

Thanx.

Please email me responses so I can recieve them as soon as u email them. I will be near the tire place very soon.

Thanx

Those should clear the strut perches but they will be significantly taller than stock.

Stock = 603mm

195/65/15 = 634.5mm

That's about 1.25" taller than what they are supposed to be. Will look ridiculous and throw the speedometer off a ton.

Here's some info to help you:

I have the 7 spokes with stock suspension. If thats what you had then great but if not please let me know. I would like to get them on but dont want to waste time if they wont work. And how bad did it throw your speedo off.

The 7 spoke OEM wheels are exactly the same dimensionally as the snowflakes (both versions), so they will fit any of them. Not sure how much it will throw the speedo off exactly, I'm too lazy to do the math. Prob a good 5mph or so if I had to guess.

Hey guys just wanted to let you know that I just put the front two on. They DO fit but barely. As far as the speedo being off.....yes it's def off. Lol. Don't know how much but it's all good for now. The car feels higher in the front too. I must add that the tires were used and had 6/32 's left on them. I don't know if this size would fit if full tread was there. Probly but idk.

Thanx
