Default Help me find some tires please.

Could anyone let me know where to buy or find tires about 185-45-15. I want to run a low off set wheel on my EF and be tucked. Could anyone help me out with a site, brand, or any info on something with similar tires to these.


Thanks

You might be able to get some Nankang's imported, but as far as that size goes, it's not common enough to stock here in the USA.

Stick with 195/50-15 for your car. Even if it's lowered.

Because 195/50-15 has the same outer diameter as your stock tire size (175/70-13 for most '88-91 Civics). You don't want tires whose diameter is smaller than stock (they will throw off the accuracy of your speedometer and odometer, they will use more fuel, and they will make your car look silly), and you don't want tires whose diameter is larger than stock (they will also throw off the accuracy of your speedometer and odometer, they will make your car accelerate slower, and they may rub on the wheel wells).
