Upgrading to some 16's on the daily. Leaning towards 195/45-16's for the front but im stuck on rear.

Running a 195/60-15 as of now. Thinking a 205/60 or 65 would work as I'd like to keep most of the height the same (tweaking invovled).

Any opinions/input on both?
Appreciated.

go to tires.com and use the info center. 205 55 16 or 195 55 16 are about the same size as 195 60 15. 205 55 16 is almost the same size as 165r15

Yea like per inch plus on rim size, go down a size per sidewall height.

195/60-15 = 205/55-16.

I guess if they're the same overall height, gearing wont be an issue...
