I wouldn't call 23.21" ? very close at all to any of the stock sizes.
185-70-14 is the stock 240 sedan size @ 24.19" ?.
185 R {80} 14 is the stock wagon size @ 25.65" ?.
So doing the math your wheels are 2.44" shorter than stock wagon diameter, and your car sits almost an inch and a quarter lower than it should.

Experienced the new tires today on wet roads with a little standing water/puddles. No indication of hydroplaning, felt sure-footed. Pleased so far!
So you're still alive too?
At what speed, over 70mph?
Gosh. I just spent $140 per tire!
We will see when the car gets lowered! Cut springs I assume!?
Whatcha get?
I remember either reading or hearing somewhere that since Costco buys so many tires they get them really cheap, maybe $10 a tire. So that would be a good place to shop. Walmart too. So I'm sure you can a name brand tire for a really good price. Where the money is made is on installation, disposal fees, tire protection, all the add ons.
Nothing is quite as embarrassing as puny tires on a 245.
