I just took delivery of a 2009 Accord V6 6MT Coupe with P235/45R-18 tires.

I checked and the suggested snow tire sizes are 215/60-16 or 205/65-16.

I own four 205/60-16 tires, will they fit?

Or should I try and sell them?

Thanks.



They are not the right size. Too small.

Check it out

Rule of thumb is less than 2% difference too big or too small.

Maybe someone on the tire rack can help with real world experience to say what happens with the VSA and so forth when the tires are too small.
