Winter wheel questions?!
Hey guys, I'm new to this forum. My girlfriend has an 08 civic lx....very nice car.
I'm in the process of researching winter tire and wheel options. I want to get a dedicated set of winter wheels for the car. Stock tire size is 205/55/16.
I want to go down to a 195/65/15. Tires are much cheaper and the narrower width will really help here in Central New York.
My Question is where can i find some cheap steelies? Whats the proper backspacing? How bout the offset? The bolt pattern is 5 on 114 correct?
For some reason tirerack does not carry a 15" steelie for this car? Are there any clearence problems going down to 15"???
Let me know your thoughts,
Thanks in advance!
