95 Integra - running 15 inch rims / tires in winter?
 

Hi All,

Just bought myself a nice little 'teggy with stock 14 inch rims and tires (190/60/14) and I'm wondering if going to 15's for winter would help at all in terms of ground clearance? Maybe running a 185 instead as I've heard that thinner tires do better in the snow?

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks in advance,

Ryan

Running 15's will not hurt you at all, running a skinny tire is better as it's less to got through the snow, just make sure you get a good set of tires, and you'll be fine.

Looks like we have 2 threads on this topic...

I have 185/60-15 on my car. worked well BUT>>>>>>> this tire size is very hard to find and far mors$$$.

I suggest sticking with 195/60-14 or 185/65-14 (far more common).

If your car has ABS then you must keep tire size within 3% diameter as stock.

Here is an online tire calculator:
