Here I is again friends, with another one of them thar tire questions.
Today I put two 195/70/14 "Primewell" brand tires on the front of the vehicle formerly known as "Thunder the Wonder Pig," (1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass).
I'm still running two of the old 185/75/14's on the back. The problem however, is that these two tires on the back are cracked and were made back in 2006. So their days are numbered.
I do have another 195/70/14 that is worn, but the side walls are not cracked and it does have a few miles left to go before it is worn out.
In addition to this, I have one "Cooper" brand tire that is 185/60/14 that was given to me. It's in good shape with plenty of tread and no cracks. Said tire was made in 2010.
Other than looking a little odd, would there be any danger in running this smaller tire on the back of the car with the used 195/70/14 on the other side.
Is there that much of a difference?
Would it "pull" the car to one side?
Would it wear faster since it's smaller and therefore would be rolling faster than the other side?
Would it affect braking since it is smaller and therefore would be turning faster than the other side when I applied the brakes?
Opinions, theories, ideas?
Thanks.
