Who uses the factory 14s

[olds307 and 403]

I had 235/60R14's up front, no rubbing. I tried 245/60R14's up front and they did rub. I had 245/60R14's out back they fit fine. Both those sizes were on my 14" x 6" factory aluminum rims.

I have them on my 78

Lauren's car has them also but it's not being driven anytime soon

I have 235/60R14 on the front, 245/60R14 on the back, on SSII rims. As Comic Book Super Hero says, they fit fine with no rubbing.

I currently have the stock 14x6 “Rallye” style wheels. I like the look, but eventually want to put bigger brakes & tires. Got excited when I found these:

Not cheap, though.

Nice, but wow $700 a wheel at least they give free shipping.

Yeah. Not cheap. But I think it's bad-@$$ you can get that look in 17s now!

I used to run 225/70r/14 on all 4 corners. 14x6, 6 hole stock rally wheels on my El Camino for everyday use..... I saved the 15x8 steelies and Goodyear Stockcar Specials for Saturday nights....

Tire choices are very limited these days. What you can get depends on your goal - do you want long treadlife? Excellent wet/all weather traction? Or wide and meaty?

Michelin still made one 205/70/14 that had good fuel mileage, great wet traction, and pretty good in the snow too. Meant for the minivan types but fits our cars.

Most manufacturers abandoned the 14s so for high quality tires... not much to pick. Can get bfg t/as but they wear out quick and traction isn't great... I'd give it a 60/100 rating.
