Question about changing stock tire size

I was looking on the discounttire website and it says that an optional size tire can be 205/60/15 for the stock rim. Is this ok to do, or will I run into any problems?

Green Civic is an unknown quantity at this point
Before I got my 17's, I had the same question. Did you check the size in the tire calculator?

As long as you dont go any wider, I believe you will be fine.

That size will work fine and not throw anything off. You could go 215 wide but it will look a little odd with such a wide tire on a 6 inch wide rim, sort of like a 4-wheel drive truck tire.
