I picked up a set of these winter tires for my stock wheels and didnt notice that the celica uses 205/55/15 as a stock tire size. Previous owner had 195/60/15s installed. According to my calculations, its a 5.4% oversize. Would that causes any issues besides my speedo reading 5% slower? thanks!

215 will fit a wheel 7" wide, but is really intended for 7.5" wide wheels.
Similarly I've had 225 on a 7.5" wide wheel, It looks nice, but is a little bit too much rubber on the road. The outter tread by the tyre walls wear out alot faster than the middle. -------------------- Mike W
