oem tire size on those Si wheels 205/55/15
***edit: OOPS my brain is not working today, sorry**
oem tire size on those Si wheels 195/55/15 "not" 205/55/15
on me
Either 195/50/15, 195/55/15, or 205/50/15 tire sizes will work alright. I went 205/50/15 on my Si wheels but would have gone 195/50/15 just as easily.

Dont you know that the Fart sound is better than a v8? everyone knows that..... stick a Honda civic DX with a Greddy eggzaust next to a 1970 BOSS 302.... and that Fart muffler will drown out that V8.... OOOOH LAWWWD

What does an exhaust gotta do with tires? No wonder they call them newbies. Each with 5 posts each too. Wonder how long before mods delete those accounts?
Anyways, 205/50/15 is ideal. But 195/50/15 is just as good. I think the reason for TireRack's answer was that the car, 99-00 Civic Si, will "overload" the 195/50/15 tires...something to do with the profile and rated weight load.
