My hiace is currently wearing a set of 185 r14c tyres, no mention of profile. What should the profile be? 3 off the tyres are good and pretty new the 4th is a rather horrible looking remould which I would like to ditch. - i've been offered a part worn 185 75 r14c - I just wanted to check if I got this it would be the same as the others or they might be 80's or something. cheers Mat

if there's no mention of profile, it's an 80 profile most of the time.
So 185/80/14

75 is prob near enough to use Afraid not. You'll also fail your MOT with different profile wheels on the same axle.....

No quite right there. 185 14C (or any other full profile tyre) is actually 185/82 14. They can be mixed with 80 series tyres with no problems though. Wouldn't mix with a 75 series.
