Colorado emissions

I'm good on the emissions test for a while yet but I was recently told that 15" tires don't fit on the dynameter. Sorry if I spelled that wrong. Let me know what any of you have experienced with that, at emission station testing or if that information is incorrect, etc.
Thanks so much.

It's not the wheel diameter that's the issue..

it's the outer diameter of the tire that matters. All MINI rolling stock is within a half inch or so of the average so you should be fine. If you are really worried call the shop with the tire, like 155-75R15 or whatever it is. You can find this on the side of the tire.
