what is the diffence from a 225 and i 195 tire? and a 50 and 55

225/50/15 and 195/55/15??

if i was to upgrade into 15in rims.. what is the right tire size to stock 14's?

thanks

 

On stock 14's, I'd probably run 195/50's.
The first number=width in mm
Second number=percent of the width that the sidewall represents
thirds number=wheel size
letters=speed rating

I know with my 15's, I run 205/50's. The tires are still well protected against pot holes, crackes, etc.
The bad thing with the 205's is that I had some rubbing issues, and ended up cutting the lip out of one wheel well. (my car has been through 2 accidents that I didn't know about when I bought it... But that explains MY rubbing issues)
That aside, 205's shouldn't rub, but depending one what tires you get, they may be harder to mount on the rims.

 

I don't think they make a 195/50-14

 

they do make 195 .. is 195 smaller then 205? in hight? or in width?

 

what tires is size is good for 15's???

 

Read the first respnose!

Ad for 15's, I love my 205/50's. I might go with 205/45's next time, but to a point, it's all prefference.
