Well, let's see if I even translated that into English correctly. You are saying you drove through water that came halfway up your 215/55R16 tires and now your floor is wet even though you didn't open the door. Let's see... 215 x 0.55=118.25/25.4=~4.65 inches, plus about half your rim gives us about a foot of water, give or take. If I'm right, you should know that most cars are not designed to be as watertight as a boat so there is no problem in that regard. However driving through water that deep can cause many other problems and if you EVER sell the car, you will have to reveal that it has been in a flood. Feel lucky it still runs and don't be surprised when it stops running. If I'm wrong, you need to learn to type slower and more comprehensible.
