But Whats The Diff. Between 175 And 185 , Why 175 Is Not Ok For 14

>.< Really Want To Know

[SeverAMV]

dude, the difference is 1cm, literally. 175 are fine for 14 inch, 185 wont make much difference. they dont really make that many good tyres for 14 inch, not like the difference in cooling and stability will be that noticeable as 14 inch wheels arent wide enough to take advantage of wider treads.

just stick with whatever you can get your hands on that is grippy, yokohama should be good.

[aaronng]

What car do you have? Too narrow, you lose too much grip when you corner because the tyre tends to roll on the shoulder.

just a D16Y1 eg civic

i will give it a try coz c- drive is not as good as s drive

and the price is 150 each = =

Your stock tyre size is 175/65 R14. Call around the other shops. I paid $155 for 195/60 R15 C.Drive, and that is an expensive size.

14"? You can get RE001 for $100. Pretty good.

didnt know Re001 comes in 14"...

From b/stone, GIII in 185/60R14 would be around the $120 mark, and Firestone wide oval the $110 mark.

Aaron already corrected himself.

im after new 17" coz my front are stuffed. gotta keep an eye on it properly this time. my car is lowered by about 1.5". the inner shoulder is pretty much bald but the rest of the tyres are almost brand new. anything else i can do other than alingment to stop them from wearing so quckly? had em for about 20,000km. (proxes 4)

im leaning towards the advans re001. street use only. from what i have read, i should be paying about $250 per tyre?

if the inner shoulder is bald, at only 1.5inch lowering, try reducing the tyre pressure.

[gbang007]

pretty sure its not that coz they are running at about 35psi. they even ran at like 32 psi for ages to see if it would reduce but nothing.
