just watch with the smaller tires cause some places won't inspect a car with 
smaller than original tires on a car-not sidewall,but width.unless our 
inspection stations here in pottsville,pa are just getting picky i don't 
know.i know my guy looked at the door sticker and checked the tires.my 
cousin in his chevy wouldn't pass cause he had 185's on and it called for 
195's on the door.screwed up.really screwed up.
