Default Can I run these tires? Urgent please help :(

Hi guys... I had a 92 civic, bought an 00 civic, and I had amazing 90% new snows on the 92. My 00 has all seasons, so i wanted to swap them. I just took all the snows off the 92 and put some crappy old steelies with bald tires on it... but... when I began to put them on the 00 I noticed the tires sizes are different. (It's snowing out and I don't have a garage).

The 00 has 185/65/R14 on it right now, the all seasons.

The snows are: 175/70/R13 right now. The 13s fit fine (since it's not an SI) but, when I put it right up to the 14, I noticed it's quite a bit smaller overall.

So... given those sizes, are they okay to run? Will my speedo be way off? What about gas milage? I would love to run these are they're mint, but I don't want to run them if it's wayyy off that it will be bad..

Thanks!
