195 instead of 185? (first gen wheels)
I want to run Falken Azenis on the stock first gen alloys. They don't make a 185/60R14, but a 195/60R14. Is this a big deal? I know its within the tires limits to run on a 5.5 inch rim(right at the bottom of the range), but what adverse affects would this have? I'm not worried about the speedo being a bit slow... just curious about handling and such. Thanks for any input!

The 195/60-14 Azenis work just fine on the stock rims. Jesse (PseudorealityX) ran on them for about a year, before he got his 15" rims. Two sets, IIRC.
