Your post is unclear..



Are you looking for a 205/60/15 tire, or for a wheel?

I figured there were two ways to say it, and I chose the least embarrassing way.

If it's just bent out of round, it's an easy fix. Stock gxl wheels are pretty soft, You can pound them back into shape with a dead blow mallet pretty easily.
