The stock tire size of the 2015 Rogue SL/SL Premium is 225/60r18...

After doing research it seems that the OEM Dunlop Grandtrek tires are not particularly ideal... And I have noticed the hydroplaning tendencies in the rain. My 2012 Rogue never did that...

Anyway, I liked the Yokohama Geolander all-terrain tires I put on my 1st gen Rogue, and the closest size I've found them in to the new 225/60r18 size is 245/60r18...

That being said, they are 3/4" wider and just under 1" taller than my current tires...

Can they be fit on the stock 18" wheels without fear of clearance issues or rubbing?

Thanks

The link below is from Discount Tire's website and shows optional sizes that Discount says will work on your Rogue. While there are lots of choices, 245/60/R18 is not one of them.

If you are really set on that tire, you might be better off with the 225/55r18 size instead of the 245/60. Would be a lot closer to OEM specs if you want to keep the OEM wheels.

The tires I had on the old Rogue were 225/55r18 (OEM size for the 2012), and they would be 1" smaller in diameter than,the 225/60s... I had a chance to swap them for the OEs on the 15 but I didnt want tires that would be an inch smaller in diameter... Id rather tires that are a little bigger.

Ill have to keep checking
