Is it possible to fit 185/60/R14 tyres on a first generation Myvi 1.3 rims? If it is possible, then are there any drawbacks or problems since the original tyre size is 175/65/R14. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks.
Yes, you can fit 185/60R14 in place of 175/65R14. Wider tyres for traction, 60 series aspect ratio for better handling without too much compromise on comfort. Many of my friends have already changed to this 185 size. Overall is about 1% smaller only.Is it possible to fit 185/60/R14 tyres on a first generation Myvi 1.3 rims?

Thanks. The Myvi that I am referring too is currently on 175/65 Goodyear NCT5. I thought of suggesting to change to 185/60 Viking tyres like the one I used before since they are cheaper than NCT5.Yes, you can fit 185/60R14 in place of 175/65R14.

I did suggest swapping mine to Myvi and I get something else. But family told me back how about the workmanship costs.Sell yours to the Myvi then you can get the something else.....hhahahhahah
Well, then have to use until you start work then you can pay for what you want.....I did suggest swapping mine to Myvi and I get something else. But family told me back how about the workmanship costs.
When u sell yours to the Myvi owner, get him go to those shops that sell 2nd hand rims then go there do swapping.I did suggest swapping mine to Myvi and I get something else. But family told me back how about the workmanship costs.
He not changing rims, but tyres only, and if not mistaken, sell to family member......hahhahahahaWhen u sell yours to the Myvi owner, get him go to those shops that sell 2nd hand rims then go there do swapping.
He pay his own labour/workmanship and you choose your rims usually include install one...
Family member then can sell higherHe not changing rims, but tyres only, and if not mistaken, sell to family member......hahhahahaha
Better in handling for 185/60 over 175/65, and 175/65 also have tyres available, but probably less choices only, but then people who will use 175/65 are not that choosy......hahhahahhahaAll my myvis were eventually changed to 185/60/14. 2 tyres at a time. Meaning earlier front were 175/65 and back was 180/60 until the front were changed out.
In terms of driving you don't feel any difference. 185/60/14 sizes are more readily available compared to 175/65/14.
Yup, that is why we aim to charge you for DIY already, because you are family.......hhahahhahahahahhahaFamily member then can sell higher
Haha, true. Maybe that time will aim to change into 15" like perhaps RPF1 rims since 15" have more choices. For now, just keep quiet and use 14" only la.Well, then have to use until you start work then you can pay for what you want.....
Can't do that because he din't work yet.When u sell yours to the Myvi owner, get him go to those shops that sell 2nd hand rims then go there do swapping.

Yes. In fact, my younger brother is using that Myvi. Previously owned by my aunt but she changed her car. So this Myvi is passed down to my bro. It's a manual Myvi, which is quite responsive.He not changing rims, but tyres only, and if not mistaken, sell to family member......hahhahahaha
I think you're right. Most 14 inch rims that I've seen are using 185 size instead of 175. But if I am not mistaken, last time there is 195/55 for 14 inch. Not sure why it isn't offered anymore now.All my myvis were eventually changed to 185/60/14. 2 tyres at a time. Meaning earlier front were 175/65 and back was 180/60 until the front were changed out.

I'm going to be grounded by the rest of my family if I do so to my younger brother.Family member then can sell higher
If change back to 175/65 NCT5 will cost more than 185/60 vikings isn't it?Better in handling for 185/60 over 175/65, and 175/65 also have tyres available, but probably less choices only, but then people who will use 175/65 are not that choosy......hahhahahhaha

Yup, I use before 195/55R14, and that is a long time ago. Now no more, probably no market and expensive to bring in.I think you're right.

But I'm not sure got what other good ones for 175/65. I'm sure my family will send that Myvi to the same shop where I get the vikings. Over there, I only remember that they have vikings, goodyear nct5 & duraplus, continental, GT radial... That's all. My vikings I got for 140 a piece. Seems reasonable.Yup, I use before 195/55R14, and that is a long time ago. Now no more, probably no market and expensive to bring in.
175/65R14 got many other choice also. No need NCT5 mah!
