    Hi, I`ve recently gotten my hands on some 14x7 Rallye wheels. What tire size can I / should I put on?
    Before that I had 14x6 Olds wheels with 235/60/14, a rather spongy ride but not too bad either, so what`s in it for the 14x7 wheel?

    Ok, 245 sounds good to me. Over here we have Cooper Cobra tires, people like them because they have the white letter design.

    The 245/60-14 will be about 25.6" tall. That is about 1" shorter than the stock tire.

    Just go with 225 70R-14 which is about the same size as the old G70-14

    Thank you all for your advices. I guess I`ll go with something like 225-235, might be a good all around size. Still have my old 235/60/14 on my Olds wheels, might run them down before I go for some new ones.
