Replacing factory tires on my '05 Corolla

Factory is 185/65-15, I'd like to go up to 195/65, or must I use 195/60? There is much more selection with the 65 aspect ratio, but I'm worried about interference.

Thanks.

Stick with the 185/65 range. Going with a 195/65 isn't impossible as I'm sure it'll physically fit, and there's "probably" enough clearance to not rub. But I would strongly recommend going with a 60 aspect ratio if you want 195. I'm not a fan of making the car taller and throwing the speedo off.

I just found out the LE & S models come from factory with 195/65 15. So assuming they use the same rim offset, interference shouldn't be a problem. However they probably do have a recalibrated speedo - good point.
