205/60/R16 on Stock EX Coupe 16" Rims ?

Has anybody tried 205/60/R16 on the stock 16" Rims?
Does it fit on the EX Coupe?
If so, does it improve the ride quality any?

Your odometer will be off. The car is designed for 205/55/R16, but if you want to drive faster than it shows then go crazy.

Why would you want to go with a higher profile tire? Are you not satisfied with the ride quality?

I think it would give a better ride quality. But the other question would be if it fits without rubbing.

will your odometer be off if you get a lower profile tire but with bigger rims?
