Detailed tire and wheel breakdown for the 1974 AMC Javelin
Tire geometry â 215/70R14
The 215/70R14 fitted to the 1974 AMC Javelin has a section width of 215mm and an aspect ratio of 70%, mounted on a 14-inch rim. That gives a sidewall height of 150.5mm (5.93") and an overall outside diameter of 656.6mm (25.85"). At highway speed this tire completes roughly 485 revolutions per kilometre, which is what your speedometer and odometer are calibrated against.
Plus-sizing window
If you want to upsize wheels on the 1974 AMC Javelin while keeping the speedometer accurate, target a 225/61R15 (plus-one). For a softer ride or winter setup, a 205/80R13 (minus-one) keeps the overall diameter within Âą3% of stock, which is the industry tolerance for ABS and stability control to stay calibrated.
Wheel fitment specs
The 1974 AMC Javelin uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 71.5mm hub bore. Safe rim width range for the OEM tire is 5.5J â 6.5J, and offsets in the ET-5 â ET5 window will clear suspension and fender without rubbing on most setups.
Tire pressure guidance
Manufacturer-recommended cold tire pressure for the 1974 AMC Javelin is printed on the driver-side door jamb sticker â always defer to that value, not to the maximum pressure printed on the tire sidewall. Check pressure monthly and before long trips; under-inflation by 20% can reduce tread life by 25%.
