will these rub?

OK, stock 15" rims on a 07 sport. Can I go from a 195/55R15 up to a 195/60R15 without it rubbing? Would like to soften up the ride with a higher sidewall. What is the tire clearance on the stock set up? I know the speedo would be off about 3% but that is a good thing! I checked it as it is with the stock tires (used a calibrated radar gun) and it is reading about 3%higher than it should anyway, so it would actually be right on the mark!

Iknow, all you yungins want to go as low a sidewall as possible for the looks. Not my thing. Just want to soften the ride during the commute!
Thanks!

I doubt 195/60x15 will rub though the tire is 24.2" diameter compared to stock 23.4" (3.3% surprise) That higher sidewall coupled with a little lower air pressure should certainly be softer riding but how about your mpg? Its likely to be worse, corrected for thr odo error. I might have preferred 185/60x15 or even 175/65x15's. My snow tires are 175/65x15's and my wife thinks they'r much nicer than my 205/40x17's; and I do get better mpg compared to the 205's. Naturally cornering sucks tho. As for the young'uns, I'm 71.
