    plus the Toy OEM Manuals .

    Vol I, IG-10 says ...

    . cold 0.36 to 0.55

    . hot 0.45 0. 65

    Sec Res :

    . cold 9.0 to 15.4

    . hot 11.4 18.1

    I wonder 'why' he diff twixt `94 & `95 I4_cyl ???

    I can understand the 'diff'

    twixt I4_cyl(coil) & V6_cyl(coil_s) .

  2. .........

    ............

    I bought a Camry '99 (V4, Sedan) a couple of months back

    and it requires new tires.

    ???

    Maybe V6( 1MZ-FE ), or I4( 5S-FE ) ???

    . dia wdth

    . V6( 1MZ-FE ) calls for a [ 15 x 6.0 JJ ] wheel , P205/65R15 tire

    . I4( 5S-FE ) " [ 14 x 5.5 JJ ] wheel . P195/70R14 tire

    ...........

    I checked a few sites, and they recommend tires with

    spec.'s 195/70R14. But the previous owner has 205/75R14.

    [195/70R14] is OEM 'reccomended' , 4_cyl engines

    [205/75R14} mite be an "up" sized tire ... ????

    Tires have 2 "main" metrics ... "section" width & height.

    The "195" in [195/70R14} is a measured(mm) section width ...

    The "70" is a ratio , a "%" ... ( (sec_height/sec_width) x (100) ) ...

    . sec_ht(x), therfore is "x"/195=70 ... U do the math

    The "R" is radial , tire construct

    The "14" is the (steel) wheel diameter , in =INCHES=

    "mm" is a different "metric" than "Inches" .

    SOoooo ...

    the wheel diameter , with tire mounted , is ;

    ( (sec_ht) x (2) ) + ( wheel dia ) =

    ..... U do math and metric conversions.

    Looks like [205/75R14] mite be a 'taller', overall "wheel" ...

    ..... U do math and metric conversions.

    Check the wheel "rim" width to see if [205/75R14] mounts properly.

    :-)

    ...........................

    I wanted to know which are the ones that i should go with

    now? Are there any advantages/disadvantages of 205...

    over the 195...

    Use the 'tire' that matches your engine size ,

    and wheel size , is a safe 'bet'.

    Your 'speedo' is calibrated to "them" ... :-)

    ..............

    (The car has default rim's)

    Assumed: "wheels" that came on the car, outta the 'factory

    I'm not all that sure of your measurements, or data.

    ????

    You "seem", now, to have an "up" sized tire,

    mounted on a "std" 14" dia. rim, w/4_cyl engine.
