tire size question

[boci]

A friend of my has some winter tires with rims, that he does not use and will "sale" them to me for a six pack
Tire size is 195/60 15
Is that size gonna be good for my 2006 jetta wagon (195/65 15) ?

Re: tire size question

too much difference
195/60r15 radius = 307.34mm
195/65R15 radius = 317.24mm

it will work, i think, its just a little more then the recommended difference.
@100km/hr you will be going 96.9km/hr on your speedo.
