I have an 07 sport and need to get a new set of tires. My last car had Michelin hydro edge and i really liked the wet traction and tread life. I wanted to get these tires for my fit but Honda recommends a 195/55 15 and the hydro edge only comes in a 195/60 15. If i go with these tires will it scub the fender or throw the speedometer off? And will it mess with the miles per gallon with less rotations per mile? Any recommendations on tires you have on your fits will be great also. All I am looking for is a great wet traction and long lasting tread life tire.
If anyone could answer these questions i would really appreciate it.

Hey Brian. I don't have first hand account on this but seems like your speedo would be off by 2mph according to this tire calculator I picked up from this forum as well. Overall you'd sit taller with the same width.

I have stock size Falken Ziex on mine. Good luck!
