195/65/R15?
I am in the process of getting some winter tires. I found a good deal on some used tires, but they are 55's. Will they fit? Thanks

Are they 195/65/15 or 195/55/15?
55s should be okay; your speedometer will read a little higher and you'll have a slightly higher effective final drive ratio (better acceleration, lower top speed, lower fuel efficiency) but the effect should be small.
65 will also probably be okay, since they're about the same height as stock WRX tires (205/55/16) and lots of us use those.
