Hi everyone,
I just bought an E0 with the stock rims and 205-55R16 tires. The tires on the car are in good shape, but they are all season (Dayton HR, M + S, H-rated) and I really want to maximize performance by getting dedicated summer & winter tires.
While I was researching the SVTs, I noticed that while the rims remained the same size over the years (16x6.5, although I know the styling changed) the tire size changed to 215-50R16. Does this mean that I can replace my 205-55R16s with the wider tire with out any problems? Will my speedo be impacted?

Speedo usually isn't significantly impacted unless you move up more than or down more than two sizes.
