About the 195/60R15 size
Older compact size, H or T rated. Cheap and still carried by every major brand, mostly touring all-seasons.
What the numbers on the sidewall mean
A 195/60R15 tire is 195 millimeters wide, its sidewall is 60 percent of that (about 4.6 inches tall), and it mounts on a 15-inch wheel. That works out to an overall diameter of roughly 24.2 inches. Every replacement has to match all three numbers, and the load index and speed rating on the placard inside the driver's door have to be met or exceeded.
In this size our picks are marked 88V on the Kelly Edge Touring Plus (1,235 lb per tire, rated to 149 mph) and 87T on the Yokohama Avid Ascend (1,202 lb per tire, rated to 118 mph). The first number is the load index, the letter the speed rating; a tire with equal or higher values than your placard is fine, a lower one is not.
Our guide on reading a tire size walks through the markings, and this one lists every load index and speed code.

The same tires in neighboring sizes
The Yokohama Avid Ascend, our mid-range pick here at $84.15, is also stocked in 225/70R16 ($121.99). Useful if your vehicle came with a different wheel package, or if you are comparing an upsize: the same tire usually costs more per inch of wheel, not per inch of rubber.

Winter on a compact car in this size
Compact cars are nearly all front-wheel drive, and that is what the traction laws look at. In Colorado the Passenger Vehicle Traction Law applies on the 126 miles of I-70 between Dotsero and Morrison from September 1 to May 31: a two-wheel-drive car must be on tires marked M+S, 3PMSF or rated all-weather by the manufacturer, with at least 3/16 inch of tread, and fines start at $130. Most all-season tires in this size are M+S rated, so the marking is usually there; the tread depth is what catches older tires. A light car on narrow tires actually does well in snow because the tire cuts down to the road instead of floating on it, so a dedicated winter set in this same size, swapped on in November, is the simplest upgrade if you live where it snows.

Frequently asked questions
How much do 195/60R15 tires cost?
Expect $55–$71 per tire for a budget brand, $71–$91 for a mid-range tire like the Yokohama Avid Ascend, and $91–$132 for a premium tire like the Goodyear Eagle RS-A. A set of four therefore starts at about $220. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 195/60R15 tires?
195/60R15 is original equipment on Honda Civic (2001-2005, EX), Hyundai Elantra (2001-2006), Honda Accord (1994-1997) and Toyota Corolla (1998-2002, LE), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 195/60R15 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Yokohama Avid Ascend, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Goodyear Eagle RS-A is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Kelly Edge Touring Plus is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 195/60R15 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
