I currently have the stock tires on my car (185/60R15) and its time to get new ones, but everywhere I go different stores are suggestion different size tires and I don't want to get something I don't need. I'm not looking for speed enhancing tires or anything like that, just basic, simple, boring tires.

Suggestions I have received have included tires that are 195/65R15 and even 175/65R14. Now I know the 14s won't fit on my car obviously, but would the 195/65R15's make a big difference? Would they even fit on my car?

I've never purchased tires on my own for a car so I want to make sure I'm not being sold something more expensive that I don't need.

Please help & again like I said I apologize if I missed a similar post with the same question.

Best bet is to get tires with the same size the old ones (185/60R15) unless you where having trouble with them which I seriously doubt.

well that is not entirely true. different tire sizes can be used to get a better ride, more performance or just better looks.

I ran 205/50R15's on my Yaris since it fit nicely on my 15x7 wheels with my 2 inch drop.... and it was one of the few sizes that BFG Super Sport A/S's came in at the time

everybody likes something different, that is why there are so many choices
