165R14 is still a current size, it's just hard to find (very hard). 175R14
might be somewhat more easily found, and is slightly taller and wider.
175/70-14 is common, but will be slightly lower and wider. Depends which way
you want to go. RBBs might want to go lower; CBBs might prefer the ground
clearance, depending on the state of the springs, average passenger load,
etc.
