it will throw off your speedo- slightly- not much at all going slowly and only a tiny bit at higher speeds, we are talking a difference of about 300 miles at 10000 on the odo you will save on weight but on an unlowered car they won't look good, adding to the wheel gap, case closed

I'm not sure what this statement means. I think the 205/55's have the longest radius, meaning they will fill more of the gap. I am lowered a bit (NF210's) but there is still a bit of gap. Are you saying that a wider (215) will make the gap look smaller? I think I read something here with somebody else claiming that a wider tire looks better, looks like it fills the gap better than a thinner tire with a longer radius. |

On NF's I think the 205/55/15 will look best. The 215 will probably stick out a bit. I am on 205/50/15 they look great and you can save some weight but with only a little drop and that 1/2 inch gap created by going 205/50/15 the gap will get pretty unsightly. Your speedo on 205/55/15 will not change at all.
great company- http://www.edgeracing.com/tires/2055515/
