Instead of a 195/60-14, which is 23.21 vs the stock 22.95" ... a 185/60-14 is about 22.74 and only 1/4" shorter. Being barely wider, but a smidge shorter, I wonder if this one would be a reasonable compromise.

Which is worse for fuel economy? Compared to stock 175/65.....Taller and wider 195/60-14 or shorter and not as wide 185/60-14.
