That probably makes the gearing close to what I had with my 185 x 14's.
The use of commercial i.e. van tyres, has come up before. You may get good wear but you'll loose the car tyres comfort and cornering ability, especially in the wet. It's a similar problem, but the other way round, if you use car tyres on a caravan. The tyre construction doesn't match the usage. I also thought that using van tyres on a car was actually an MOT failure, but the differences in looks if not construction is much closer now days so the MOT man might not notice.
Try a track day on your commercials and see what the results are. I'd predict not very good.
