S70 1998 Tire size

Post by cogitoergozoom »

Does anybody know if I'm going to run into any clearance or turning problems if I replace the stock tire size of 195/60R15 with a full set of 215/65R15 studless snow tires.

On a base S70, you might get some rubbing at full lock, but you should be fine other than that.
