My Saturn Vue OEM tire size is 235/60/17. Found tires that are size 235/65/17, WILL THEY WORK AND WILL IT CAUSE PROBLEMS? one thing ive noticed is on the front the strut plate sticks out, so im wondering if anyone has had like changes in tire sizes?

Why do you want to change sizes? There are plenty of good tires in the stock size.

The 235/65-17 will be approximately 1 inch taller (stick out .5" more all the way around). It will also make your speedometer read 3.3% slower than you are actually travelling.
