What is the original tire size on 14" five lug Fuchs ?
I have the original spare 175 SR 14 Is that right? Also what happened to the tire calculator on the site? Thanks,914/Alan |

IIRC, 185-14 was the standard size. Likely equates to a 185/80-14.. but no one seems to make those.. so a 185/70-14 might be close.. or a 195/70-14 in terms of overall diameter. Spare would have been the same size. Dealers could have swapped out anything. Nearly 50 year old tire might not be original.
I currently run 195/60-14s on mine. 60 series softness, but smaller overall diameter for a (small) boost in acceleration. |
