91 190E 2.6L
Will 205/55R15's fit on OEM 6Jx15H2 ET49???

Need to order new tires today, so I can install them tomorrow. i know that my 91 190E 2.6 uses 185/65R15 but my friend said that the 205/60R15's are much better. Someone on 190Rev said that i should go with the 205/55R15's.

My question is...
Will 205/55R15's fit on my stock 6Jx15 wheels?

If no, I'll just go with the 195/60R15's.

Thanks in advance!

Don't be lazy. Go to the tirerack and look up the tire specs. They will tell what rim size they will fit on.

I got 17's off a compressor 220 coupe with 215 40 17 so 205 55 15 should be fine
