    195R14 for better grip. parehas lang sa FC IMO dahil same diameter lang.

    dapat walang series ex: 195/70 R14

    since it's for carrying heavy load. series has less layers and meant for cars.

    How About 205/75 R14? kasya rin ba sa L300? para masmaganda ang grip.

    affected na actual FC mo nyan dahil mas makapal na at mas malapad, also mas mabigat na yan. IMO parehas mo na lang sa stock aspect ratio, kung 70 then add ka na lang ng konti sa lapad for better traction.

    185R14 is about 185/80/14.

    If you change to 195/70/14 passenger tire, the wheel diameter is much smaller. And also take into consideration the load rating. Am not sure if there is a 6-ply rating this size.

    205/70/14 is about the same size (1% difference) but you may have some offset problems. Try nyo nalang i-mount.

    Changing to 195R14 will definitely result in a bigger tire.. and a heavier one. Though comfort might improve, fuel consumption will suffer.

    I recommend 185R14, saktong sakto sya sa mga L3, yung L3 ko kasi naka offset ang mags, pag napalaki ng konti ang goma, tumatama na ang goma sa fender, nagpalit ako ng 185R14 Goodyear G28 na 8ply, da best tires for your L3

Best tire Size L300 VAN
