Yes, but I could choose both larger overall diameter AND low rolling resistance tyres. However, I've found that 175/80/14 is rather large already and trying other sizes would actually decrease the overall diameter.

Now just need to bloody finally decide on which tire to choose...

Thanks for your time!
