I have a 1997 Honda Civic EX 2dr and I need a tie rod. I have 3 16 inch rims and one 17 inch rim on it. Midas told me that I needed to get 4 new rim and tires and my question is this: I have three perfectly good rims and tires, do I really need to buy four tires and rims or can I just replace the 17 inch rim with a 16 inch rim and tire? Thanks in advance.

As long as the rims are all the same size and close to the same weight you shouldn't have issues, midas just wants to sell you a complete set.

My question for you is, how does this have anything to do with a tie rod?

Because they told me they couldn't do the tie rod before I got a new set of 4 tires.

thats because they want to make a quick buck. i wouldnt trust them, but i would get another 16in rim.

I would go in there and slap them with my dick cause how dumb they are. Just make sure and get another 16" rim to match the rest and get a tire on it and your fine. they shuld replace that tie rod anyway.
