Hi guys. Canadian here. I’m in a bit of a time crunch so I don’t have loads of time to search the forms and the Internet due to work and other commitments.

Long story short is that my girlfriend wrote off her 2014 Santa Fe Sport (base) and is shopping for a new vehicle.

we found this 2015 Tucson in excellent condition, no rust or other problems and had a mechanic check it out. 181,000 km. Leather interior and the “dual” sunroof whatever it’s called. I ran a VIN decoder and it’s the GLS. 2.4L , no touch screen. But has leather seats (no backup camera). It doesn’t make sense.

For some reason it has 16” wheels on it. I believe it was supposed to come with 225/60R17. She currently has 17” winter tires on rims from her SF, so I’m wondering if they will fit ? 235/65R17. My gut says no.
Comparison

HOWEVER: If those tires are too big; shouldn’t those rims still fit if we put different tires on them with the correct size? 225/60R17?

Thank you in advance !!

EDIT: Are there differences between the Canadian and US trim options? I see GL GLS and LE for Canada but on other sites I see GLE, SE etc ??
