97 Civic Recommended Tire Size

I really need to pick up a set of tires ASAP. Currently I have a set of 195/50R15, seems this combination put me at a bind with only being able to get more expensive tires.

Would I be able to fit 195/60R15 with out having any issue?

Im thinking of getting a set of Hankook Ventus V2. Any info on them that anyone might be able to provide?

195/60R16 and 195/50R15 use different size rims.

Re: 97 Civic Recommended Tire Size

haha I know the feeling, no worries.

Your speedometer and odometer will be off by a couple percent, but otherwise it would be fine. On my 2002 I use 195/65R15 winter tires, my stock size is 185/55R15, it fills the wheel well a bit more, but not enough to cause clearance issues.
