from the chart - Your 185x14 which has a diameter of 650 mm -
you could easily fit 195/75x14 on your rims without problems,
which maybe cheaper as well.


But they might not fit the car, fitting the rim is not the same as
fitting the car, the above would be fitting a wider tyre that
whilst safely fitting the rim could possibly foul front *or* rear
suspension (or even body, on extreme suspension movement, or when
on full steering lock).

Thats why there are also rim sizes on the chart.

Whhhoooossssshhhh :~(

Rim size has f*ck all to do with it, it's the width of the tyre and
the clearance allowed in the design of the car that matters, whist a
given tyre can safely fit a rim it doesn't always follow that the
given (tyre) width can safely be fitted to the car.
