Quick Question
Im new to wheels and tires but I have a 1999 civic sedan. Could I run two different set of tires with different sidewall thickness?
Front will be 195/50R15
Rear will be 195/65R15
As long as I am not running staggered on my fwd.I should be good right?
TIA

Re: Quick Question
You COULD, but the 50s will be very low profile, really short. Looks funky if only one pair has them IMO.
Speedo error will be increased (your speedo shows faster than actual) if they are shorter than original.
Use one of the online tire calculators to see the differences in height and rolling diameter, and speedo error %....compare to the correct original stock tire size.
