Default Re: What is the difference in these tires

205\60\15
175\60\15

205 will be 205mm wide 123mm tall and 15" diameter
175 will be 175mm wide 105mm tall and 15" diameter

The 205/60x15" will be better for cornering (larger foot print), but might or might not throw off your speedo, and your mpg might suffer due to more rolling friction.

The 175/60x15" will get better mpg, but not good for cornering.
