Looking for alternative Michelin size

[Vronsky]

Dear All,
I have 225/60 R15 tyres on factory-standard alumnium 7J 15 ET15 wheel
Since a couple of years Michelin doesn't offer 225/60 R15 size anymore however.

Michelin does offer 215/65 R15 however (here in Europe), which is 0.2" higher and 0.4" narrower than the 225's but still compatibel with the wheel size I think.

Could this be an appropriate alternative size ??


THANKS,
V.

Why stick with Michelin if they don't offer the size you need? I am sure there is another wheel manufacturer in Europe for you to choose from.

Unfortunately the 225/60R15 are a dying tire size. General tire and Fuzion are the two that we carry. You can run a 205/65R15 and Michelin still has tires. They will keep the correct diameter and still work on the car and they wheels.

For 205/65/15 size, Conti is another good option and less pricey than michelin.
