Honda Car Forum

I have just bought my first honda (after being a Ford guy for
decades), a 99 Honda Civic EX with stock 14 inch steel wheels. The
tires on the front are P17565R14s and the rear tires are P18565R14s.
I have ordered the OEM honda 15 inch 15 spoke alloy wheels and I am
trying to decide what size tires to use. The honda site shows a
P19560R15 on the new Si with the 15 inch wheel. I am not looking for
a dazzling performance just some thing decent. How about this size on
a 99 EX?

Thanks, Norm

The thing to consider is to keep your tyre size the same diameter for speedo accuracy so 185 x 55 x 15 should do you.

Hope this helps
