Tyre Size

The tyres on the car are 195.15.65, but the sticker on the inside of the door with tyre pressures and size states 185's ?
Can anyone help [?]

The handbook lists them as 185/65 88T or 205/65, so I would think a previous owner has changed them for wider tyres. The 205's have wider rims.

The only downsize of using the 195's will be about a 1.5 - 2.0% variance in your speedo reading.
