Just ordered a GTT 205/65R15, didn't find a 205/70R15 at the site that I ordered from www.discounttiredirect.com. Did I make a mistake, what are the advantages of the 70 over the 65 if any.

The 70 is 1/2" taller, = lower rpm's at cruising speed. Bead is narrower = easier to seat.

I am running a 65 and love it! It's all just a matter of opinion between the two.
