Tire Compatibility Kia Sephia 2000

The tires that came with the Sephia were 185 65 R 14
and I want to
know if The tires I just bought will fit ......175 65 R 14

One told me they would not
Another told me they would.

I'm not a tire girl.... just got a good deal on the 175's but if they are not compatible..... it's hardly a deal.. right?

Can anyone help me?

There is about a 1/2" difference in height, you should be fine.
