Assuming currently you are on 205/55R16 (not sure about iraq, but here in US this is the standard tire size for 16" stock rims):

Using 205/60R16 you will have about 10.3mm more side wall while using 215/55R16 you get only 5.5mm more side wall. So to answer your question 205/60R16 would give you a softer ride.

Would 20560R16 fit?


Also talking about softer ride, which gives a softer ride, the standard 19565R15 or the 20555R16?
