tire size

hey guys i need help

i drive a 1996 honda civic si and it had stock 14" rims on it

now i put these 15" rims and i was wondering if its possible for me to use this size tire 205 / 65R15

will these have problems when i turn around corners.

will it touch the inside of the body or anywhere in this case???

thanks

For 15's the stock size would be 195/55/15. You can also use 205/50/15.

Never heard of them...where did you find this junk??

j/k I recommend buying only high quality rubbers on, after all your entire car depends on only a few square inches of contact for all motions...not worth the risk.
