Default different tire size

does it affect the cars handling (for the better or for the worst) if i have 195/60r14 in the front and 185/60r14 in the rear? does it make any difference...

You wont notice a difference in your particular situation. In more extreme cases, yes it can have an effect on handling.

Could also have uneven wear and tear. I wouldn't use different tire sizes unless you had to. But it shouldn't get you killed or anything.

i work at a tire shop. and I'm trying to get some of the tires they throw out because some of them are still in good condition. but 195/60r14s are hard to come by so 185/60 would be the next best thing. so there's nothing to worry about then? lol
