Is it OK to use 225 / 60r16 tyres instead of 235 / 65r16?

The lesser tread section width (235 to 225mm) would give you less of a road contact patch. The sidewall aspect ratio height decrease (235 to 225) would also lessen the load index ratio which would decrease the vehicle’s load carrying capability. Both bad negatives.

In the case of the 225 vs the 235 the overall tire diameter increases by .5″. Going with an aspect ratio of 55 on the 235 width tire (235/55r17) you come up with a tire .4″ smaller in diameter.

What’s the difference between 205 / 60 and 205 / 65 tires?

If your car is supposed to run 205/60/16, the equivalent size is 195/70/15. 205/60/15 will be almost 1% smaller in total diameter and will throw off your speedo and probably affect handling too.
