Winter Tires for 225/55R18

I plan to change to Winter tires 215/65R17. Would these tires fit within acceptable size and calibre clearance on Buick Encore GX? What would the spec for the rim, e.g. centre bore, width and offset etc.? Thanks.

https://www.willtheyfit.com Wheel spec for your vehicle you should be able to find on the wheels you own stamped on the back, in the manual, or via some googling.

Tire wise that is a standard size down and your speedo will only be off by ~1%. Usually anything under 3% is good to go.

These are the correct sizes for your car for winter tires. you can choose 16" or 17", taken from SimplyTires website - http://simplytire.com/winter/buickpdf.pdf

215-65-16
215-60-17


i would go with 16" as its cheaper.
