Running a 215/55/16 tire - cons?


Recommended Posts

Hey all :)

 

I upgraded my 205/60/15 stock setup to a 215/55/16 setup for warmer months...I do realize that it is slightly larger than stock and the spedo will roughly read 60 when I am going 61, but does anyone see this setup as being a problem? The slight, oh so slight gearing loss will be offset by the decreased mass of the new rims, but even if it isn't, it probably won't be too noticable if at all, yes?

 

Thanks!
