What winter tires will fit on a car that currently has 195/65R15 tires on it? 205/65R15 or 205/70R15?

Strangely enough 195/65R15 winter tires will fit. And that is what you should be using.

Danimal,

IF you do not stick with your current 195/65-15 size you would have the option of going with the following on 15 inch rims:

205/60-15

205/65-15

215/60-15

The 70 series you suggested would fit, but not properly. If you are looking for a winter tire stay with your OE 195/65-15 size, winter traction is better with a narrow tire.

There are many highly rated tires in this size available to you including:

Bridgestone Blizzak WS70

Michelin X-Ice Xi2

Continental ExtremeWinterContact

Dunlop Graspic DS-3

All are available for around 100 buck or less.

Holler if you have any additional questions.
