I have a 99 civic coupe and I put 195-60 r14's on with no problem. It does
change the speedo a bit, but not much. If it says I am going 100 i am
really only going about 99 (not that big of a deal). I got some BF Goodrich
Touring T/A's from Sam's club. They are H rated and were only $55 each.
on the coupes the antenna is over the passenger side door, but on the sedans
the antenna is built into the back window.
