    Caravan, tire options?

    I have a 2000 Caravan Sport with 16" Alloy rims with stock tires on it. I
    want a 2nd set of rims to put winter tires on instead of having the tires
    switched on the alloy rims at $40.00 a "pop" twice a year. No junkyard in
    the area has 16" steel wheels, I'm not about to pay the price for new steel
    wheels, or for used alloys but I was able to find a set of 15" steel wheels.
    Does anyone know what the proper width tire comes on this vehicle with 15"
    tires from the factory?

    Thanks,
    Snyde

    I have a 99 Dodge Grand Caravan with 15" wheels. The standard tire size is
    P215/65R15.

    I hope this helps.

    And 215 70 14 tires also fit. 205 70 14 is less than 1/2 inch lower
    diameter than the stick 16" tires.

    14" rims may not clear the brake calipers or present other clearance
    problems.

    Sorry I reply at the top, but that is just the way I am.

    Anyway, my stepdad just put tires on my van and we went with 225/60R15. I
    had already a pair of these on the front. The difference is about 3% in
    height, not a real difference if you ask me. Plus they are a little wider
    giving the van a better stance and handling.

    So you're aware that top-posting is for morons, but you CHOOSE to do it
    anyway? Hmmmm....
     

    Are you sure about that? Just putting wider tires on a vehicle does not
    necessarily give it "better handling"... In fact, it can be dangerous.
