Hello Guys,

i need to change stock tires size 165/70/14 BS of my Japanese vitz with 185/60/15

I already got japan vitz OEM 15 rims...

Can anyone tell me..which is ideal replacement size for 15" based on my stock tires 165/70/14..

will it cause any problems with suspension shocks, speedo ratings etc?

thanks!

Not sure what you mean by a "bit thin" but these sizes generally work very well:

Tyre Size = Diameter (inches)
175/65/14 = 23.0
185/65/14 = 23.5
195/65/14 = 24.0
195/60/14 = 23.2
205/60/14 = 23.7
215/60/14 = 24.2

Those are the diameter figures for the wheel and tire package they are next to.

ie: 185/65/14 = 23.5 would mean a 185/65 tire mounted on a 14" rim would be pretty darn close to 23.5 inches in total diameter.

Size.............Offset Range.....Backspace Range.......Weight
14" x 6"........6 to 32mm........93.2 to 119.2mm .......13.6lbs


Based on that data, what would be the most preferred configuration for my wheels?

Depends on the size tyre you want to run, if you are dropped, and whether you want to make camber adjustments.

If you simply want to bolt some wheels on your car, then 14x6, ET32 would work with 175-185mm tyres.

Kinda trying to go wide here... if 205 can fit then 205 would be my preference. If not wider (somehow) Not looking to change camber, while grip is important daily drivability-even tire wear is twice so. Can I push 215? The more rubber, the better.

I think the wheels I'm looking at are lighter than stock steelies, but couldn't tell you for sure lol.

i know some people are pushing 225mm tires on a 6" rim... but the side wall looks like its at a 45 degree angle off the rim.. also thats stock suspension.. my race rims are 15x7 with a 40ET. i run 225/50/15 khumo v700.. if i turn the steering wheel all the way left or right, the tires rub on the chassis

What about a 15x7 +27 offset with a 195/55/15 tire.I'm already lowered about 1.7". Is it possible? How much negative camber and fender pulling and rolling are we talking about?
