Hey guys and Gals
Here's the deal, I am going to use my old stock rims as my "winter Rims", and such, am looking for tires that will fit.

So.. I found a lady thats selling tires she paid $500 for last winter, for $100, Due to her lease return.... Will these fit? My stock tires - 215/60 R15
Her Winter tires - 195/65 R15
I did the tire calculator, my spedo will only be out by 0.7%

But the thing i don't know is, will they actually be able to be installed? will they still seal right? I don't know shit about tires so hoping someone here can help me out

They won't be the same overall diameter, if that's what you're asking. Just about any 15" tires will fit on 15" wheels though.

the only thing I'd check is what the recomended rim width is for the winter tires (since they are a narrower tire) and see how it matches up with your rims. Shouldn't be a problem though.
