Re: Which tyre profile for 15s on rear 14s on front

The wider tyres are at the 50 profile will have a higher side wall then your current tyres. Remember that the 50 is the percentage of the width, and the 225 / 205 / etc is the width in mm's, so 60% of 225mm is how high your sidewalls would be on the back is you change tyre sizes.
Is there even a 205/60/14 available??
225/60/15's aren't a super common size, there's a few brands make them. You may find that you can get a 215/65/15 in a better quality tyre. A 215/60 is only 10mm thinner then the 225 and it will have the excact same height sidewall as the 225/60.
