Hey guys Im looking at buying the Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S but they dont come in my tire size 205/60-16, so I was wondering if someone could check this link and tell me if I can get a bigger tire that will still fit and work for me. thanks

Does anyone know if 215/60/r16 would fit my 2001 ES 300 16inch rims? Is the tire higher or is it wider in this size?

 

It's wider and I beileve it will fit, don't buy the exaltos. They lasted me 11k with rotation and balancing. I'm not easy on tires but still they were rated 45k, I was not impressed considering the price. They do grip very nicely in the dry or the rain, ride nicely, and are very quiet. Not bad in the snow either, just terrible treadwear for me.

 

I don't see why they wouldn't fit... it's only going plus one (next size up) on width. You're not changing your aspect ratio (over all height "rim & tire" together) that's what really matters. I would think only one size wider would fit no problem.

On tires... I've had great luck with Kumho tires. Switched a lot of cars over to them. Usually great on price and look & perform very well.

 

You should have had a warranty for the short thread wear. If you bought it at Costco for ex. They would replace them minus the amount of miles you've driven them.
