        Change to 60-series. Seriously. Much better performance tires available vs the 65's. You don't give up that much ground clearance & it's worth it.

          both from tire-rack, both reasonably prices, and both are awesome for any kind of driving.

          195-60-14 throws your speedometer off, you'd have to that minute change in diameter is not going to make noticeable difference in tire inertia. If Funcrew's logic was correct, BMW would equip all e30's with that tire size from factory.

            ^You have lost the argument on 195/65s, give it up.
