My brother lives in Round Lake Park, and I have other relatives in from Waukegan, Highland Park area. But we were raised in Wausau, Wisconsin. Everyone has just moved around since then.
I think you should be fine. I lowered my car an inch and half and I have no rubbing issues at all. So I imagine that if you put a tire on that is larger by an inch and half, you won't have any rubbing issues either. Usually the rubbing would happen from a wider tire issue, not so much the diameter. The 215/65 should be ok. Your speedo will be off though, so remember that as well. So if the speedo reads 55, you will actually be speeding.
well considering this whole hoopla is for winter tires i don't think speeding will be an issue per say. Now turning off the traction control and finding an empty parking lot with fresh snow is an entirely different story. Thank you for everyone's help on this matter. I shall be ordering the new tires tomorrow. Hope everyone had a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving.
