Default Going from 215/55/16 to 215/60/16 tyre?

Can I go from a 55 series tyre to a 60 series without giving my V70 T5 grief? In Australia the 60 series is a very common size and therefore $$$cheaper. I live in the country and the extra profile would help ride and comfort on dirt roads.
Cheers,
Andrew

BTW gearbox is now OK

Profile changes will throw out your speedo, most places won't even fit them as they don't wont to be responsible for you getting a fine..i find 55 series to be a good alround tyre, go to kmart tyre and auto, i put on some Roadstone's 215/55/16's good tyre $120ea not bad value

good luck
