be like it is
i had 205/65s for a while...they were ok. big sidewall though.

even with 2 sets of 205/55 and one 205/65, my speedo was never off enough to "compensate" aka "care about" :lawl:

205/70 doesn't mean much without the width of wheels n offset

they r the stock rims from a 1993 accord. the ones that look like a dinner plate with the little notches cut out lol and y doesnt it mean ****? the car is at stock ride height and i dont plan to lower it. i know the 205 will fit but i have nooooo idea about the 70

they will fit but I wouldn't recommend that size.
Your speedomoter will be severely off.
to compensate for a wider tire, the thickness has to be less
