Alternative Sizes to (Stock) Tires

**gutz_3110** · June 14th, 2014 09:42 PM

Hi Guys,

Gusto ko palitan yun stock tires na 185-65R15. Pwede ba yun 195-60R15 or 205-60R15? Iniisip ko kasi yun handling saka fuel efficiency. Thanks!

You can also add 195-55-15 to your option. The stock tire of my vios is also 185-65-15, but I changed to 195-55-15 for better grip (fatter) and stance (lower profile) plus the rim guard.

195/55r15 will give you better fuel mileage due to smaller rolling circumference than your stock tire size and better grip due to the wider size.

fuel/km will cost more if the diameter is smaller than the stock..wider tyre means your engine works harder ..

thanks trucker111!

i just used a tire calculator, you have to take in consideration of the stock tire size pala. akala ko basta salpak lang ng salpak ng maski ano basta maporma hehehe kelangan ma off-set ng replacement tire mo yun stock otherwise, may impact na malaki sa odo and speed.

depende sa oto yan eh..... some cars like the smaller Getz, i10, Picanto, Celerio and Mirage may not be able to handle the 195/55/15 route.... Ang maximum dyan is 185/55/15 dahil labas fender na yung goma if ever.

for bigger cars like lancers, altises, sentras, the norm is 195/55/15.
i think 195/65/15 is for Mitsu Adventures. Yun ang stock nya eh.
195/60/15 is still ok though for sedans as stated above. kaya lang medyo mataba na and may malaking margin of inaccuracy na sa speedo mo.
