Default tire rim fit question

I have a 2000 Accord 4cyl. The tires on there are 195/65/15. Will 185/65R15 fit? I found a great deal on 4 which is why I am asking.


I have a free back seat entertainment center by case logic to anyone that answers this question or anyone who wants it if I don't get an answer lol

They'll fit but you'll have a slightly smaller overall diameter that will change your gearing slightly and have an effect or your speedometer and odometer as well (miles will run up just a little quicker). Approximately 2%.

Not a big deal if you're just looking to save a buck.

Yeah it will fit, that's such a small variance.

The first number is how wide the tire is so you're just going to have a slightly smaller sidewall and width of tire, but it's not hard to do.

Well the 1st set of numbers reflects on the second so the tire will be skinnier an shorter but not by much ..
