Hi,
I'm new here, I've just signed up.
Apologies if this is asked / answered elsewhere ..doesn't the 75 profile reduce the tyre diameter and gearing compared to the 80 profile?
I've got a 2019 SZ4 with the black steel wheels (J15 x 5.5 JJ markings) and 195/80 R15 Dueler H/T 684 II tyres. I like the look of those Toyo's..
I get 45.2 mpg out of mine (it never goes above 60 mph as we've not much dual carriageway in Pembrokeshire!)
Thanks
David

The second number is a ratio, not a specific size.
195/80/15 is 27.3 inches in diameter, while a 215/75/15 is 27.7 inches.

I didn't know that - thank you.
I'll do some before and after pics if I get some (I'll try for the one's without the white lettering)

Hi, yes I've got G015 in 215/75R15 fitted. Have done 4000 miles on them and they've been excellent. No noticeable increase in road noise. Ride comfort is good and I've had no cause for worry with on road grip in dry or wet weather. No tyre squeal when cornering. Performed well during my one day off-road.
They look good too, not as aggressive as BFG KO2s but give the car a more solid appearance. They have outline white lettering on one side, so you can choose your appearance when having them fitted, mine have OWL hidden Heavier than stock of course (though lighter than KO2s) so some impact on consumption.
Overall a top quality tyre, I'd happily buy them again, no regrets at all.
