Will 15's fit on an ES?

Also what would the size be? I got 225/60R16's right now, so I should go to 215/70R15?

I tried to use those tire calculators, but they don't give any results

The brake rotors are the same, so 15 inch wheels should fit. The non e-s came with 205 70/15. I got 215 65 15’s and they are great in the snow, so yes 205 70 15 should work out fine. 215 70 15 should be about 26.9 inches in diameter, 225 60-16 are about 26.8. That should work.

Like Mark64, above, I have a set of winter-only wheels/tires for Sheba, our '95 ES, and also like him, I've got 215/65's on it. Will go with 215/70's, next time around, as the 65's are just a tad short, and when the snow is deep, every fraction of an inch helps.... If in doubt, I can vouch for the Yokohama Guardex 600's being worth the dough, and their cheap! Our ES 'Trep can handle about 8 inches of the white stuff before it starts pushing a bunch with the bumpers, FWIW. More than that means break out the snowblower, or take the 4x4, neither are very appealing options....

My car is lowered, lol. It looks like a snow plow in the winter on my street.

I'll probably go with 215/70R15 Kumho KW-11's. I got KW-11'S on my SE-R and they're freakin amazing. Saved my life twice.
