    Hi new here, I have a 05 prius, stock tire size is 185/65R15. It came with 195/60R15 when I got it. Wondering if 195/55R15 or 205/55R15 would fit ok without rubbing? Pros Cons? Thanks!

    Looks like everywhere I look, the 185/65R15 is the only recommendation.
    Not sure why

    195/60R15 might end up being just about the same OD? That said, I'd stick with stock size; it's narrower, will roll easier, all things being equal.
