Default Cheap tires

Anyone know of a webswite that has really cheap tires?
Another question, what size tire would go on a 16inchx7inch wheel?

Actually I have 205/40/16s on my 95 and they are less than 1% smaller than stock so your speedo won't be off by much

that depends on the model/year of your car and the size tire it came with originally.

92-95 civics and 96-00 hatches should use 205/40/16 as it is the closest size to the original outer diameter. 96-00 coupes/sedans and integras should use 205/45/16 or 215/45/16 as this is the closest to their original outer tire diameter, preserving the accuracy of the speedometer and odometer, as well as maintaining the same gearing/acceleration.

I have a 99 hatch and the stock tire size is 185/65/14. 205/45/16 would be the closest to stock for my year hatch, not 205/40/16.

my bad, i was under the impression the ek hatches came with smaller, 185/60/14 or so

but if that is not the case then 205/45/16 is a much better size. 215/45/16 is actually closer to the original diameter but its an uncommon size and most stuff is more expensive in that size. the new azenis come in 215/45/16 though
