I was wandering around the Tire Rack web site. You never know what new tire 
 sizes might show up. I noticed that they have a pair of nice sized 14" 
tires  available. The two sizes are 185/65-14 and 195/65-14. Both are available 
in  several brands. They seem the right height (24") for a "slightly larger 
 than stock, but still clears everything" size. At a "65%" aspect ratio, 
they  won't look like steamrollers. They will work on up to 6.5" wide to 7" 
wide  wheels, that should cover most available stuff. One of the brands, a 
General  Tire, has a rebate that pushes the cost of the 195/65-14 down below 
$60 each.  These are not performance tires, they are all season touring tires. 
In this  size, they are rated 600AA. That seems like a good street tire 
combo.  I  make no money if you get these from Tire Rack. I'm just dropping it 
out there  for anybody making the switch to 14s.
