    185/70/14 too narrow for e30?

    Picked up a set of steelies with "BMW" hubcaps for the e30 the other day. THey came with a set of 195/65/14's that had ok tread but were dated from the 23rd week of 2002 (far too old to be considered safe to drive on iMHO).

    I was thinking of going with 185's as they would be narrower and offer better noise isolation and better fuel economy

    any advise?

    thanks
    If it's got tits or tires, it's gonna cost ya!

    I think that's a bit tall.

      I have 185s as snow tires and they are great. Dunlop Graspic 185/70/14, and they are REALLY quiet. Mounted to bottlecaps. Good winter wheel
