for 185 14" rim

looking for a good tire brand for these 14" steelies at the highest i want 60 series but i'd rather have 50 55 series what would you think is the ideal tire im thinkin 185/55/14 50 might be to much!

185/70/14 is the correct size, but you can go with whatever size you want.

yeah 70 i have now but its to baloon for me, i just want to know what most ppl perfer 55 60 since this will be an all season tire! i know 60 would be better for snow then a 50 i would think!

You may have trouble finding a 185/55/14, I found 185/60/14 on Bridgestone, but they only had Summer and Winter tires for that size, no all season.

185/70/14
195/65/14
205/60/14

Falken Azenis come 195/60 or 65/14 (cant remeber if its a 60 or 65)
Ran them last year...great tire for the price.

Remember he's dealing with a limited width on that 14" rim...he may be able to squeeze 195 on there, but never will he get 205 on it.

This depends on the rim width and not the rim diamater. Sure you can fit a 205 on a 14" rim. As long as the rim is 5.5 in width, he should be fine.

oh ya lol i forgot about that

whats the width of the stock steelie?

That is why I said "that" 14" rim ... he is talking about a rim that he is currently running 185 wide tires, and I'm guessing those are stock. Even on a 5.5 it would be real tight. I wouldn't do 205 on anything smaller than 6. I run 205 on my 6.5 wide rims, and 225 on my 7 wide rims. My 225 tires state on them "DO NOT MOUNT ON 6.5 WIDE RIM."

there stock but i want a really good tire i can use i got some used up potenza's but there nothing made for all season just summer

imported_alwaysoverkill

ya, I had 205/50/15 on 5.5 steelie...had quite a bit of tire flex, simce 5.5 is the min width. I'd go 185 or 195 max.
