You can although you will be putting a much smaller tire on and it'll cause your speedometer to be off by about 4 1/2 mph at highway speed
(speedo
reading 65 actual speed would be around 61 1/2 mph). A better substitute would be a 175/75.
Yes, this is an acceptable swap.
No, the 185 70 r14 tire cannot be substituted for a 175 65 r14 tire. The 70 series tire has a larger diameter and is not recommended that you substitute on a 65 series tire.
Yes they can. You do realise this gives less tread on the road, which is not always a good idea,
No
Usually The tread is 10 millimeters wider and the tire is 12 mm taller overall but mounts on the same wheel
Yes, they can
No, a 185/70 R14 tire cannot directly substitute for a 175/65 R15 tire. The numbers indicate different tire widths, aspect ratios, and diameters, with the 185/70 R14 being wider and having a different overall diameter compared to the 175/65 R15. Using incompatible tire sizes can affect vehicle handling, speedometer accuracy, and overall safety. Always consult a tire professional or your vehicle’s manual for proper tire specifications.
Please give the whole number, NOT just part of it. Whole number will be something like this - P185/60R-14 95H . IF the last number and letter are same then it is a substitute
Yes, they can
No, this is not a recommended substitute. The 70 series tire will be 3.02% larger in overall diameter. Your power, and fuel mileage will be effected. Your speedometer will read 58.1 at a true 60 mph. If you wish to go to a 70 series tire then go with a 175/70-14 which is almost the exact same diameter.
Yes, this is an acceptable swap as there is only 1% difference in overall diameter between the 2 sizes.
The 175/70 R14 tire can be replaced with tires of similar diameter and width, such as 185/65 R14 or 165/75 R14. It's important to consult your vehicle's owner manual or a tire professional to ensure the replacement tires maintain appropriate load capacity and handling characteristics. Always consider factors like driving conditions and vehicle specifications when selecting replacement tires.
