    dunno about 86 fitment, but on the ma61 245/265 looks phat (nb: phatness may not correlate to handling)

    I have 14x7's on my one tonner.

    Was running 195/60's on the front. Now running 185's due to the tyre place having 195's in stock (needed one Asap due to a tyre letting go)

    and am running 235/60's on the rear. sidewall bulge on the rear of tough looking cars looks horn in my opinion.

    195/60 is too big

    good quality 185/60's, keeps rolling diamteter closer to standard.

    Uh, 195/60/14 is the appropriate rolling diameter for an AE86

    Start with your standard tyre and work out the wheel diameter. Looks like the ae86 came with 185/70-13 (185mm section width, 0.7 aspect ratio & 13" rim diameter. I think that gives you an overall wheel diameter of 589mm (185x0.7x2+14*25.4).

    A couple of other tyres that are pretty close to this include:
    - 185/60-14: 578mm wheel diameter
    - 195/60-14: 590mm
    - 185/65-14: 596mm
    - 205/55-14: 581mm

    195/60-14 looks a good match if you are after something with a slightly wider profile.
