Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I thought 185/55/R14 was considered too large, and 185/50/R14 used instead? Bold question, but you're definitely using /55 Hayesey?
Just wondering, as I've always wanted to give 185/55/R14 a go as there's a lot of choice for tyres and they're a very close radius to the 165/60/R14's I'm currently using.
