Well, my tires are bald and I need to change it.
However, I don't like the thik sidewall of the factory tires and I would like to have low profile tires, somewhat like 215/50-15.
The factory tires are 215/60-15 so I think I could mount 215/50-15 tires on a set of factory 96SE sawblade wheels without any problem, right?
Also, is it possible to mount 225/50-15 or something like that on factory 15" wheel? I just want something more sportier looking tires but can?t afford any new set of wheels.
Please let me know! Thanks!

P.S. I live in Atlanta and is it ok to mount summer tires through out the year? We only see snow maybe once a year and I don?t drive when it?s snowing. Please let me know this as well.

 

american co. tire or tirerack should be able to complete the task for you no problem.

and yes it will fit.

Thanks for your reply guys?
Somehow I couldn?t used the search function anymore.
Anyways, so I could use either 225/50-15 or 215/50-15 on factory 15? sawblade wheels with no problem?
Any safety concern when using this tires on stock wheel?
I just don?t want my wheels to come off while I?m driving.
Thanks again

 

Not sure if you have a drop or anything but I think you will have an even worse wheel gap if you put smaller tires on these wheels but I might be wrong. Just something to think about.

They will fit, but if you look at the link I posted above, your speedometer will be faster than the actual speed. According to the site:

215/50/15
"Speedometer reading with non-stock tire is 6.7% too fast.
When your speedo reads 60mph, you are actually traveling 56mph"

225/50/15
"Speedometer reading with non-stock tire is 8.4% too fast.
When your speedo reads 60mph, you are actually traveling 54.9mph"

 

It will definitely accentuate the wheel gap if you have stock suspension.

 

haha... ok. I think I'm going to have 225/60-15. this is OK right as far as safety and wheel gap?
