Pls go for 205/70/R15 and thank me later.

Please sir, are you using it on your corrolla car currently? Have you experienced any issue with the steering wheel because of that.

I just want to be sure I am making the best decision before I buy it..

Thanks so much for your input.

If i were you, i won't increase the width. You need more height not width.

First pix is 195 65/R15 vs 195 70/R15
18mm height increase
0mm width increase

Second pix is 195 65/R15 vs 205 65/R15
13mm height increase
10mm width increase

1st gives you height increase which is more ground clearance and less high speed stability while
2nd gives you width which is more stability and a little more ground clearance but you risk damage to either tire, body or sand protectors with tire making contact with wheel arch.

I will go with 195 70/R15

can i upgrade to 205 70/R15 to compensate for speed stability?

Hey guys,
My car follow come tyre from the US is 195/60R15. So each time I pass through a bumpy road my car chassis scratch thr ground.
So, I want to replace thr 4 Tyres to achieve a more ground clearance.

I am contemplating choosing between 195/70R15 and 205/70R15. Which one will be best suited for 2005 corrolla LE, and give me exactly what I want, more ground clearance, without any negative implication.

both of them will give you higher ground clearance but the 205/70R15 will give you more atleast by a few inches. You can as well do 195/65R15 or 205/65R15 since your car is LE. I sell grade A toks tyres .

Can it also fit well on 2005 corolla Altis

It will increase the ground clearance. Lets do the calculations

For the 195/65R15, the height is 65% of 195, that is 126.75mm

For the 205/65R15, the height is 65% of 205, that is 133.25mm

The difference in height is 133.25mm - 126.75mm = 6.5mm

Since he's using the same size for the rims, then the ground clearance will only increase by 6.5mm

But make sure there is enough room for the tyres to be installed.

And note that car will move faster than the current speedometer reading.

How we d car moves faster??

Although the size 205 will increase the fuel consumption a little bit, if you the type the calculate the amount of fuel you use..
I reduce mine to tire size185 to save my fuel and mine is fuel efficient now .
