  • What 14" tire size

    I have a set of mercury rims (tracer?). I'm contimplating selling my American racing rims to purchase some new tires.

    What I'd like:

    Good MPG
    Good lifespan
    Decent-Good Snow ability
    Decent Performance
    No-minimal Rubbing
    Not really expensive :p


    So I'm looking for some sizes/brands

    Thanks!

    From my research, a 185/55/14 comes closest to the stock size.

    But I only found a Yokohama high performance tire.
