That could be false information.

We need to know what kind of car this is going on first. The car dictates the tire size more so than the wheels.

^ thats true.. i was just assuming it was for an integra or a civic hatch

doc@tirerack · 07-28-2011, 01:21 PM

Yep, give us the car info and all will be revealed !

theEGGmonsta · 07-28-2011, 02:24 PM

The suspension modifications aren't really all that important.

What model '92 Civic? EX, Si, HX, etc...? Did you honestly import an EG chassis, or is it an EH2 (USDM hatchback)?

Assuming you've got a '92 Civic DX hatchback, the following tire sizes would work:
185/50/15
195/50/15
205/50/15

doc@tirerack · 08-01-2011, 12:08 PM

Could also consider 225/45R15 unless lowered dramatically

Those won't fit a 15x6.5" wheel safely, bud. The narrowest wheel you can mount that tire to is a 7" wheel.

205/50/15 looks good if you like some meat on your tires :]

Whoops, my bad !

Then 195/50R15 or 195/55R15 as noted above

gabebauman · 08-03-2011, 12:43 PM

205/50/15 is all I ever use with a 15x6.5 wheel.

sohc150i · 08-09-2011, 01:20 PM

Any pics of a 195/55 r15 on a 15x6.5 or 15x7?
Not sure what to go for. . .

TOO MUCH TORQUE · 08-10-2011, 04:45 PM
