185 is the width in mm 70 is 70% of the width 13 is wheel size in inches radius(amount of distance travelled to turn once) 23.23 for 185/70 22.68 for 175/70 so with 175/70 your speedometer will read slightly more than it should.but only around a few percent .not enough for you to really notice.forget offset unless you have changed the wheels not the the tyres

175 is just the width of the tire, 70 is the thickness which can alter the mileage.

SOURCE: Will a 165 70 R13 or 175 70 R13 tire fit on a 92

That is a nice, medium profile tire. The outside diameter of the tire should fit - but your wheel offset could get you... that is the only concern that I would have - and only on the front!!

Testimonial: "Thanks for your assistance...but unsure of which tire size you were referencing. How to check on offset before purchasing tires?? Thanx again. DonE "

Can tires on a Hyundai Accent fit on a Nissan Sentra and work

Compare the numbers on the side of each tyre. They will look something like 175/70 R14 84T. As long as these numbers match the tyre will fit.
It is the rim that causes most fitting problems.
