GS3 Stock Tires
Need to replace stock tires on my GS300. Currently running 225/55/16 and would like to get the same size again but the standard 215/60/16 are a lot cheaper.
Do you guys think it'll make a big difference going 215 instead of 225? I know it jeopardizes the handling a little bit, but is there any thing else I should consider?
I don't speed, hit hard corners, etc. Just smooth daily driving.
Thanks in advance for your help.

i am running 215/60R16. The ride is very smooth, and the gas mileage seems to be better than 225/55R16. The handling is a bit floaty, but if you're all into comfort, then 215/60R16 is the way to go.
Personally, i'm looking at 225/55R16 or even 245/45R16
