RE: alternate tire size
your offset should be pretty bad but they should fit under.

RE: alternate tire size
thats a fairly large sidewall....you might clear the spring seat on the strut....but you might not

RE: alternate tire size
I would think they would be a bit too tall.

RE: alternate tire size
146.25 tall for the 75's and the 65's would be 120.25 if you went with a 195 tire at 65 aspect you would still gain another 6.5mm of height. But the tire is gonna be 26mm taller on the sidewalls. Then if you are counting height in total

14" wheel - 355mm + 146mm = 501mm. 50cm
currently you are at 355+120 =470mm.

Its a 9.38% increase in size overall
