Someone explain this to my newb mind.

Civic LX 2012.

Stock tire size: 195/65R-15
GF ordered size: 205/65-15

That 10 shouldn't make any difference, yet the shop she took it to said the tire is to big for the wheel and will just fall off. Yet stock for a Cobalt are 215's even though I was running 245's. I'm confused.

A 195/65R15 would be closer to the original size in diameter and revolutions per mile.

Still the 205/65R15 should be OK being only 2.3% larger in diameter. Going up to 3% larger is normally not a problem in cars and up to 10% larger in a truck. the difference in size is only 6/10 inch in diameter of 3/10 of an inch in radius. I would rather doubt that you need to be concerned with such a small increase in size.

You are right that the 65 series tires will give you a better ride and they will likely give a slight improvement in snow traction and fuel economy due to being a bit narrower.

I had a 2004 Suzuki Aerio SX which took 195/55R15 tires. I bought 14 inch tires and wheels for it and liked them much better.

Now I am just plain confused as to how hers aren't fitting. She even said she switched just the tires since she only owns the stock set of wheels. Something doesn't add up on her end. haha. I'll have to investigate after work. I mean, if the stockers on the Z are 245's and I KNOW most of you run 275's.....the math adds up. (With spacers lol). I knew I should have just made her order the crappy continental stockers.
