The spare wheel still carries the 205/55 original, thats still brand new That�s ok, because a 205/55R16 has an overall diameter of 24.8 inches, and a 225/50R16 is also 24.8. I thought you meant going smaller rolling circumference

I thought you meant going smaller rolling circumference yeah the 225/50 looks alot better. The tyre I use suits the car well. I never liked the original. I actually didnt realise the diameter was exactly the same though. I thought they'd be close.
