Replying to: comem47 (Oct 21, 2009 8:39 pm) I chose them in the 215-65R16 size because they were about $100 cheaper than the 215-70R16 size. There is an SUV version in the 70series and a bit more expensive. My speedo shows about 4% higher than actual speed, but that's ok for winter use. I use exactly the same size on my 4500lb Sienna and they also work great, so I have no need of the SUV version on my 3600lb outlander. We don't have super steep driveways, but winter in Calgary offers a lot of quick changes (snow to rain to freezing rain to -30C and below all in one day sometimes). Regardless of conditions, we can count on getting where we need to go and that peace of mind is worth the extra bucks for these.
