Default 2006 Civic EX Tires

I have a 2006 Civic EX with alloy rims. This car came with 15" tires per Honda standard. The regular rim in the DX and other versions with hubcap comes with 16" tires. I left my car at a tire shop, picked it up later and now I notice they put the 16" tires on.

Will this make any difference since I have the alloy rim, or do I just give up the "sportier" look?

Thanks.

I just did a few minutes of researching and saw the EX and LX models come with 16" wheels.

I saw this on Automedia.com's review of the car and maybe mistakenly assumed it was an essential. I believe it just means the alloys are "capable" of 15" tires.

Thanks, I guess I'm OK&gt;

I don't belive that the tires would even stay on if they were meant for 16" wheels and were on 15" wheels. So this leads me to my next question.

Are your tires still on?

If yes, you're good.

If no, well you probably would know about it.
