Another tire question
 
I am wondering just how much difference there is between a 205-60-15 and a 205-65-15. I have 6 inch Fuchs in the front with 195-60-15 tires. Would putting 205-65-15's on the back on 7" wheels be a bad idea? I found some new Yokahama's at the local Pic and Pay for $15 bucks a piece and hope you guys say "go for it".
Thanks, Pete

I have 195/50 and 205/50 in back. It does fine.
looking at the sidewall height:
205*0.60=123
195*0.60=117
205*0.65=133.25
10 mm is not a big diff. Your car will have a little more rake than mine. I would vote yes. Ofcourse there is $ to mount/balance/valve 'em.
