Default recommend some tires....

I just picked up some blades and now i'm looking for some good tires. I have a 99 civic EX an want to get the tires that throw off my speedometer the least. So far, i find that 215/50/15 gives me the smallest difference but 195/55/15 is the reccommended tire size. What would you recommend.

Get 195/55-15, which is the same outer diameter (within 0.1 percent) as your stock tire size (185/65-14). You can also use 205/50-15, which is 1.6 percent smaller in diameter. (Very few tires are made in 215/50-15, and that size might rub.)

This previous post contains recommendations for tires in those sizes and they apply to your car as well.
