wondering if this size winter tire will fit without rubbing and ultimate grip best size for the winter?
car is a 96 maxima
right now i have 225/40/18 and and 215/65/16 is quite a bit bigger..... just need to know if they will fit ok !!!
 
unfortunatley i already have a set of 16 inch 5 star 97 maxima mags and id like to know if 215/65/16 is too big for the maxima, i think stock it came 215/55/16 ?

Gotcha... Well if the car isn't lowered, I know there's no problem on the outside, you would have to check the clearance on the inside, see if you think another 1" higher would pass.
Yes, 215/55/16 is the stock '97-'99 SE tire size.

You can also put P205/60R16 on.
 
I am lowered about 1.7 inches.... i guess ill have to keep looking for the right set of tires!!

thanks !

Go with the 215/55/16, it has a smaller overall diameter than the 205/60/16.

Here's what 215/55/16 looks like with an Eibach pro-kit...
