    Exclamation 165/70 R14 tyres for mirage 2013

    Dear friends
    I am planning to change my tyres from 165/65 R14 to 165/70 R14.
    Is it worth to change?
    Need your valuable opinions.
    Thank you!

    Hello charith84 and welcome to the forum.

    The change you are proposing would lead to a tire taller than the original with a greater circumference. This will affect the vehicle's speedometer, but not by much. The other dimensions appear to be the same.

    Keep in mind that a tire's stated dimensions often differ from one manufacturer to another.

    You should be fine with that swap. Just a minor difference in speedometer, but small enough not to notice.
