195/45/14... not sure if it is the extreme, but it handles nicely.

toyo proxy t1-s are a compromise tire.. soft enough for the street and semi sticky enough unless you are a corse master.

If you're really looking for autocross performance, you're better off with the Falken Azenis RT-615 in 195/60-14.

If you're looking for daily driving performance and treadlife, then get the Yokohama ES100 in the proper size for your car (185/60-14 for pre-'96 Civics, 195/60-14 for Integras and '97-00 Civics).

Thats some great advise. 615's have been my fav. since they came out. I was just looking for something with less sidewall. I dont care about tread life. just something thinner that I can take to the canyons and rape off/on ramps with.
