winter tires

As Bridgestone moves from the blizzak ws60 to ws70, the size that I can find for a 14" rim are 185/65 R14.

Any opinions on tire sizes/reccomendations? I am ordering my tires within 1 week here.

Hey Jesse, I have some Goodyear Nordic's on steelies for sale if your interested, Used them for only 3 months 2 winters ago. Paid $800, they're yours for $500.

stock size is 195-55r14 got to 1010 tires tire calc and check the overall diameter. a taller overall diameter is better in snow but too tall and you will hit your spring perch unless you use mad spacers. and even then you will have problems hitting at full lock.

I'm running a 185 55 15 for winter this year ;) wait till you see the raaaaaams I'm putting on for winter too lol.

I run 185/65R14 Goodyear winters on the stock rim over winter, no rubbing issues.

I haven't seen 14" sizing for the WS70..   only 15 and up

That's why I still have WS60s (175/65/14) on my car. And I love them. They are amazing snow and ice tires.

I ran kumho kw19's in that size.  Pulled a Jeep out of a drift with them, they were awesome.
