215/60/16 Anybody running this size? Just curious if there were any issues. I would think for a non lowered HHR, they would fill up the wheel wells a little better than the stock 215 55 16's.

Lemme know.

Thanks

This will tell if a certain tire fits & shows the difference also..

Gee sleeper, what a handy utility, thanks for posting the link. I'm guessing the 3.5% speedometer error could be lived with, but I'd be concerned about how the traction control and ABS would like it.

N/P I have read that as much as 3% is very do-able with the T/C & ABS.

Kinda like new tires compared to bald ones.

Now we don't call them bald these days, the politically correct way is to refer to them as "tread surface challenged" or some other way you're supposed to think according to the VIEW.

My winter tires are 225/60/16 with studded tires on the front. The front tires fit fine, the rear tires are very close to the inner fender. I make sure I kick the slush off when I pull in the driveway before it freezes. The speedo is off 3 mph and I make sure I have the GPS on so I can see my actual speed. They have installed a bunch of cameras here and I don't feel like forking out $100+. The cast Malibu wheels didn't have the air pressure sensors and the warning light is a pain. Hopefully one of these days I will find a set reasonably and add them. But the 225's are OK. Bear
