I have 15s that are 6.5" wide.

Is it ok to put 215s on them? They have some weak 195s on it them now.

Also, I think this will work and if it does do you think a shop will hassle me about putting them on?

just put 205/50's on. if you want 215s you should buy wider wheels.

It would work, but it would look funny. And if its dropped, you may have rubbing issues.

I have a 99 Si and stock tires of 195-55-15 sucked so I went to 205-50-15 and they look and handle 100% better and they tires in this size seem to be cheaper as well. Hope this helps

I have seen 245's on 6.5" wheels so I think you are good.
