Robert -

I put Yokohama AVS Intermediates in 222/60/15
on my '95 525i.  They fit fine with no clearance problems.
The slight increase in diameter does result in a slight
reduction in overall gearing and in a slight, but noticable,
increase in start-from-stop effort.  Once about 2500 RPM =

in first gear, the gearing change is no longer noticable.

 Also, can I change from the 205/65-15 =

to 225/60-15? I know they are within 5 mm of each other in overall
diameter, =

but would the extra width create any clearance problems?
