Default Tire sizes?

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could give me info regarding tire sizes.
The current set up on the 2003 V6 Accord is 205/60R16, and since it is time to get new tires I was thinking of up-sizing the tires.
I was thinking of up-sizing to either a 215/60R16 or 225/55R16 (of course I’m keeping the stock rim).

Has anyone done this? If so, did you have any problems with the wider tire?
What all season tires would you recommend? I live in Calgary (Canada) so it should have decent winter traction).

Any info would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks

Jon

theres no real benefit of going up 1 or 2 sizes....

plus.... a narrower tire performs better in snow conditions.
