Snow Tires - 205/55/16

[Shearpin]

New Cube owner trying to sort out winter tires for the coming Canadian winter. The dealer where I bought the Cube was no help.... I have a set of 205/55/16's from a prior vehicle with one season on them. I've seen this tire size mentioned on the forum but usually in conjunction with aftermarket rims. Can I run this size on my cubes stock SL alloys without rubbing issues. I know the speedo will be slightly off....

The standard size on the SL is P195/55VR16. You're only going one size up. You'll have no issues. But ideally you do want to downsize when going to a snow tire/wheel combo.

Look and Feel
The Tour Preferred irons is the latest addition to the TaylorMade product line, aimed at a wide-range of golfers who prefer a club that has a classic look, but the forgiveness of a cavity back titleist ap2. The first thing you’ll notice when you sole the TaylorMade Tour Preferred iron is the thin topline and shorter blade-length from heel to toe for a compact clean look at address. What you will not see at address, is the sole and the cavity features built into this club that make it a very forgiving and high performance golf club. This is a feature you don’t see in a lot of ap2 irons today, especially in a cavity back iron. The tour configured sole was shaped based on the feedback from the TaylorMade Professional Tour Staff professionals, and features a thinner sole that will promote less digging and better turf interaction. By softening the leading and trailing edge, the sole of the club glides effortlessly through the turf for better ball striking. The face of the TaylorMade Tour Preferred irons do not feature an alignment line, like you have on most golf clubs, so this could be a problem for some golfers. ishin

I know this is a really old thread, but I wanted to say that it definitely answered a few questions I had. Now I'm getting my yokohama tires in the right size. :]
