Didn't bother reading the post above yours, huh?

I would go with 195 or 205 at the highest.

I have a 2000 Si and rims on my car. They currently have yoko ES100's 195/50/15 and they handled quite well for daily driving. They are done and I am either going to replace them with the 205/50 RE-11's or the 195/55 Star Specs since my RE-01R's need to be replaced on the Kosei's and I need a good tire for autox and daily driving.

The other alternative in just getting the yoko S drives 195/55 since they are having a great deal (tirerack), and just waiting until I can afford to replace my RE-01R's with the extreme street tire that I eventually decide on.

Just a FYI, the other civics I am racing against (89-00) are having great success with 205/50 Re-11's or the 225/45 R1R's. The Toyo's are getting chewed up much faster though.

I recommend the Falken Ziex 512/912s ONLY if you want a tire sticker than most all-seasons, but you still want high thread life.
This tire SUCKS for launching and dont even think about Auto-xing with it.

nsxtasy

Yup. It's an all-season tire, which means it's designed for those who have to use the same tire in snow and frigid cold as they do in moderate to warm temperatures. That's the trade-off with all-seasons; in exchange for their flexibility for winter use (as well as their greater treadlife), they don't grip as well in moderate to warm temperatures, as summer tires do, on dry pavement or in rain. If you don't have to worry about using the tires in winter weather conditions and you don't mind a little less treadlife, you're much better off getting summer tires rather than all-seasons.

all this information is great...thanks guys.

nsxtasy - these SI rims are actually going on a 1994 Integra with an OEM size of 195/60r14

195/50/55 here. I drive a 2000 civic si. dropped on some springs..

nsxtasy

Again, the best size depends on the car that the wheels are being mounted on, not the wheel. Different cars have different amounts of room in the wheel wells, different speed sensors, etc.

For an Integra, get either 195/55-15 (outer diameter 1.0 percent larger than stock 14") or 205/50-15 (0.6 percent smaller than stock). Don't get 195/50-15, which is TOO SMALL (2.3 percent smaller than stock). Unless you're going for the "low rider look".

I love those 55-inch wheels!!!

EBPcivic2000

^^^which brand tires did you go with?

WhiteBB2

well after weighing all my options...and deciding that the weather in Cincinnati is HORRIBLE (snow, ice, rain, sleet, sunshine, etc.) that I needed an all season tire. Plus I decided that these are going to be 'winter mode tires'

I chose the Falken 502s (GREAT DEAL!) - Longer tread life, good price, performance/all-season. ( i really wanted s.drives, but they will be going on a nice set of aftermarket tires a little down the road. )

well thanks for that, but if you couldnt tell already...the pictures above are of my rims and tires...which means that i have them and they are already mounted/balanced...

waaBAAH

no love for azenis' nsxtasy? lol

205-50-15 looks perfect!!

i also am a huge fan of "squarer" tires then opposed to tires that round of at the edges.
