Default gs-r tire question

I know that the correct tire size is 195 /55 /15 for my 96 gs-r. I have a set of four 195 /60 /15 tires at my house that are brand new. I know that they will fit on my car but i was wondering if there will be any problems with the abs or anything else by putting these bigger tires on. Any info would be appreciated.

your speedometer is gonna be off by 2-3%, and you may end up scrapping a bit more. Otherwise they should work ok

what is the rating on the tires? You may lose performance if they do not have a high rating on them. Your speedo and tach will be off. Also I think they would look kinda big imo.

They would fit fine, handling and speedo will be off, might rub, but I doubt it
