Re: Putting Winters on my civic for the first time

I just put winters on mine last week ('07 EX). I got 16" winter rims for $60 each at Canadian Tire, and they had Goodyear Nordics on sale there. Got a bit of a deal for getting 4 of each. Still came out to over $800, though. Oh well. Has to be done.

I think you need 185/65/R14's that is the oem for your car, I believe.
