Default Tires for 2006 Sebring?

Hi
The wife has the Sebring Crysler Sdn 2006 and it has 205 60 16 tires on it
now. I want to know if I can put 215 60 16 tires on it. I have a good deal
come my way for 4 new tires and I need to know if they will fit. All
searches and googling tells me the 2007 uses 215 but the 2006 uses 205. Says
this on the door also.

What do you think anyone? Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks

According to

You should be able to use those tires. My gut feeling is also that
you should have no problem with that small increase in width.

The speedometer, cruise control, and odometer will be a little off
though, won't they?

Thanks

I moved the steering both ways and lots of room between the 205 and any
housing. Looks like a lot of room, I hope they work because the newer ones
are like new. Lucky to get them.

Thanks for infos

cheers
