I have a nearly new set of Blizzaks for my old 245 wagon that are 195/70R14. I'm wondering if they will fit because of the ABS and the offset.
The 240 steely I believe is 25mm and the 740 is 20mm.

I think it's more the matter of clearing the calipers, I believe the 14" won't clear the 740. Could be wrong though.

My thoughts exactly. I guess I will just have to put a steelie on the front and see if it clears the calipers.

I'm not too worried about the tire size.
