The factory tire size on my girlfriends tuscon is 225/60R17. I have blizzak snow tires from my Civic Si that are 215/45R17. The width I'm not worried about, a smaller width is actually better for snow. Would the tuscon ride okay with size 45 sidewall? It would obviously be a little stiffer ride and slightly misread on the odometer but other than that do you guys think it would be fine?

I figured you guys would know instead of signing up on a Hyundai forum for 1 question... lol

Thanks

do it

That's a huge difference in sidewall height. If all 4 are the same diameter, they will work but you may run into other problems besides speedo error.

It's going to look funny too. People may not be able to put their finger on it, but it will look somehow "off."

The 225 is 27.6" tall the 215 is only 24.6" tall speedo is going to be 0ver 10% out + who knows what else...

I wouldn't do it. Just sell the Blizzaks and use that money to go toward new tires for the Tuscon.
