New here,And I got a weird car

Hey guys

I just bought a 91 Honda Civic CX (yes CX) I dont know wtf that is I cant find any info or pics on them its a HB i think it has a D15b2 but im not sure anyways Its got some cancer around the rear wheel wells and Im not sure how to take care of it, I contemplated buying side skirts to cover it. I will post some pics in a bit.I bought the car with 15" rims and they need new tires I know the size is 195-50-R15 but I found some 185-65-R15's and was wondering if it would be better to go with that keeping in mind that the car has been lowered.

That tire size should fit fine, side skirts would cover the rust, but you want to stop it from spreading as well.

What specifically do you want to know?

The fourth gen cx is a Canadian exclusive model, thats why there is not a lot of info on them.

Are they like a STD or a DX ? or somewhere in the middle,no power, locks, doors,steering or any options I can find. Im assuming there a rebadged american model Im going to go with a STD but I could be wrong .If im right then I just answered my own question.

Its the Canadian version of the STD, I believe it came with a d15b2 16 valve engine.
