if you aren't lowered that should be fine. i used 195/65/15 snow tires on my stock '00 zx3 without any problems for a few weeks. 215/60/15 is appx the same diameter of 195/65/15 so those tires should be ok

another thing to consider though is that narrower tires are better for snow traction... people have suggested to me to use 185/65/15 snow tires but i couldn't stand the idea of even worse dry handling, so i used to use 195/60/15 stock size tires

but if you are getting a smoking deal on those tires go for it
