Nissan Rogue 2015 - Tire Size compatibility

225/65-17 is a diameter of 28.52" --- 225/65-16 s a diameter of 27.52" total. A 3.5% difference. Not all that much. The smaller diameter 16" wheels/tires will lower you rear ratios slightly, decreasing speed at same at same rpm. Other words, you engine will be running faster to maintain 65 mph. Or any speed. Presented for what it is, Your call. But why not just get winter tires in 17's and not have to buy wheels? You can't put the 16" tires on 17" wheels

http://www.bridgestonetire.com/tread-and-trend/drivers-ed/winter-snow-tires-vs-all-season-tires -if I may, I suggest you read that article. I live where we get a moderate amount of snow, and just use all-season tires. The big problem is ice, where 'winter' tires are of no benefit. Matter of fact it looks like we are going to have a White Christmas, and AKGuptaI wish you a Merry Christmas to you and Yours, that you and your family are well and happy. ~~David

It is usually not a good idea to change tire diameter for a couple of reasons. A smaller size tire will require you to purchase 4 new wheels, steel or alloy. That will cost more than simply buying 17 inch winter tires, especially if you have alloy wheels. In addition, the smaller tires may affect the handling and ride and they will cause lower gas mileage. You will be much better off buying 17 inch tires.

Tengo un nissan Rouge y le puse gomas 225/65r 17 alante y atras es 225/60 r17 eso afecta en algo. Si ne pudieran ayudar. Please

Likely the OP has moved on, but definitely wanted to correct some of the blatantly incorrect responses. Winter tires, especially studded ones, are much better on ice than “all season” tires. Additionally, they’re designed to remain pliable in cold conditions, resulting in better ride quality in winter. Additionally, moving to a -1 or -2 tire, with a smaller diameter wheel is an excellent idea for winter tires. Making such a change both nets a cheaper tire and, more importantly, the decreased wheel size will help prevent potential wheel damage should you slide into a curb or other low obstacle. Additionally, choosing a dedicated winter rim/tire combo has the benefits of making seasonal swaps quick and easy (and less damaging to the tires themselves, which generally shouldn’t be unmounted and remounted repeatedly) and allowing you to move to a narrower than factory width (adjusting for offset, of course), which is proven to be better for snow performance, cutting through the snow, rather than floating on top, as wide tires tend to.

I have a 2015 Nissan rogue will 20×8.5 fit or will they stick out?
