About the 195/70R14 size
Cavalier/Sunfire size, S/T rated. Cheap and still stocked because millions of these cars were sold. Classic side: factory size on the W123 Mercedes and the 280Z, and the usual replacement for the 240Z's original 175HR14. Period-correct patterns are available from the classic radial makers if the car is shown.
The numbers mean: 195 mm section width, sidewall height 70 % of that width, and a 14-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 24.7 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 195/70R14 tires cost?
Expect $45–$68 per tire for a budget brand, $68–$76 for a mid-range tire like the Kumho Solus TA11, and $76–$115 for a premium tire like the Goodyear Assurance All-Season. A set of four therefore starts at about $180. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 195/70R14 tires?
195/70R14 is original equipment on Chevrolet Cavalier (1995-2005), Pontiac Sunfire (1995-2005), Chevrolet Malibu (1997-2003, upsize alternative), Datsun 240Z (1970-1973, original 175HR14 replacement), Datsun 280Z (1975-1978), Mercedes-Benz 300D (1977-1985, W123) and Mercedes-Benz 240D (1977-1983, W123), 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 195/70R14 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Kumho Solus TA11, 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 Goodyear Assurance All-Season is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Westlake RP18 is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 195/70R14 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.
