they'll just be a little smaller and throw your speedo off a little. you'll also put slightly more miles on the odometer. there are some cals out there but I'd guess around 5%

I have the stock Continental 225/55R16 tires on my '06 LS, at least for the next two weeks. 215/55R16 will cause a speedo error, which will increase as vehicle speed increases; however, it will mean that you'll be going slower than the speedo reads, so it's unlikely to result in any tickets (on its own).

Yes. The picture i just posted is 225/60-16. They are Yoko Avid V4S, great directional tire at $99 each.
