Mine's dropped 60mm on 13's, you need 70 profile tyres for them.
As long as the wheels are the right fitment, then you won't have any problems.

No problem 
The ones I have are 165/70/13 because they're the standard wheels so only about 5J or something ludicrous. It's best to get the right profile tyre so that the radius is the same, otherwise it will cause your speedo to read incorrectly without recalibration.

greg if your doing 60mph on your speedo you will actually be doing around 56 - 57mph

I can't tell you that other than say it will be
Not sure what profile tyres you need for 14's but it's probably 60. One size out won't make a lot of difference.
