Car Forum / Ford / Ford Focus / January 2004Tire size question
Just ordered 4 Michelin Artic Alpins for my 2000 ZX3. It normally takes 195/60-15 but I ordered 185/65-15s because I thought they were pretty close and I saved a few bucks. Am I right about the size?

Am I right about the size? They're a tiny bit bigger but not enough to notice, so you'd be fine. And being narrower they'll have a little bit better bite in the snow. > Just ordered 4 Michelin Artic Alpins for my 2000 ZX3.

You'll be going 60.6 mph instead of 60 mph. Doug |
