Fitment safety note
Overall diameter, speedometer error and circumference are only part of the picture. Physical clearance, wheel offset (ET), hub bore, suspension geometry, load index and your manufacturer's recommendation all decide whether a size is truly safe on your car. Always cross-check with the vehicle manual or a qualified fitter before changing tire size.
