About the 175/70R14 size
Entry-level subcompact size, T rated. Budget and mid-range lines only; usually the cheapest set of tires on the market.
The numbers mean: 175 mm section width, sidewall height 70 % of that width, and a 14-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 23.6 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do 175/70R14 tires cost?
Expect $57–$65 per tire for a budget brand, $65–$76 for a mid-range tire like the Firestone All Season, and $76–$135 for a premium tire like the Continental TrueContact Tour. A set of four therefore starts at about $228. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 175/70R14 tires?
175/70R14 is original equipment on Hyundai Accent (2006-2011, GLS), Kia Rio (2006-2011, LX/SX) and Hyundai Accent (2012-2017, GLS), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 175/70R14 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Firestone All Season, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Continental TrueContact Tour is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Ironman iMove Gen 2 AS is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 175/70R14 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
