Not the bigesst but I run 195/50's. Handling is good. My wheels are 15" boyd coddington wheels.

I ran a set of 215/50r16 Kumho tires on my 2007 Chevy Aveo5 back in 2008/2009 when I ordered new wheels from TireRack. The really hugged the road. You can see pics of them on my garage post. After those wore out. I chose to go with 205/50r16 tires because there are more options in that size. I have been running that size April through November ever since. The speedometer is only off by about 2-3 mph. When the speedometer registers 70 mph the GPS says it's going 72-73 mph. I used the stock steel 14" wheels for dedicated winter tires. I ran several sets of 185/65r14 Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 tires over the years. This winter I went with Nokian Hakkapalitta R3 in the same size. The Aveo5 now has more than 425,000 miles showing up on the odometer.

2007 Chevy aveo 5 LT is 195/60r15... But American is 195/55r15...Must be a Canadian winter thing...

The person that I bought it from put on 185/60r15 and the speedometer is off by 10 km at 100kph. I changed them to what they came with stock and it's on par with my phone using GPS.

I'm thinking of replacing with Honda rims for 205/50r16, 205/55r17, but I'm worried I'll need a rim with an offset for 215/50r17 to keep it from rubbing on th inside but then it might run on the outside of the fender... I'm wondering if most stock rims already have an offset or if I need to look for universal ones.
