About the «homologation documents» in the different countries, nothing to say. 185/65/14 and 195/60/14 are equivalent because they are in the +/— 3% diameter, so each country might write in their papers what they want.

Nissan never fitted the 195/60/14 in a 1.6

For example the homologation papers in Spain have a lot of mistakes, and all the 2.0SLX have the nissan code of the 2.0 SGX...

I think that the homologation office (or Nissan PT) was lazy in the homologation.

When looking at your data provided from the UK catalogue it seems 195/60R14 is the size of the 2.0 eGT, wheels. I need to check, but I think that in Portugal the eGT was the only 2.0 litre version sold!

It would make sense since in early 90's the taxation in PT was purely based on engine size and was so high and "exponential" from 1350 cc onwards, that at the time just commercialising the 2.0 eGT would make sense (the price diference to the "regular 2.0 SLX" would be too small to justify it).
