Hi - for the 14x6 wheel, you could go with 195/65x14, or, my favorite, 205/60x14. But, be forewarned, 205/60x14 are much rarer than they used to be.

I'd look for some 15x6 wheels and go with a 195/60 tire, if you want something a little more modern. What are you trying to accomplish? For a normal street driven car with a stock suspension, 185/70 has a pretty good ride and feels nice. A shorter tire on a taller wheel will give you a little better handling, and a wider selection of tires (including more sporty tires), but at some sacrifice to comfort. hth, bs Sent from my iPad 4 On Aug 9, 2012, at 2:35 PM, Richard Bevins <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm sure this has been answered before, but I don't remember reading it.
