Help about rims/tires

Hi i have a 02 civic ex coupe and the oem fit is 185/65r15. I wanted to try and stay with this size tire but all the wheels i look at recommend 195/60r15....will a 185/65r15 tire fit okay on a wheel with that recommendation? Or will it give issues/screw up speedometer/ wear the tread faster etc?

If the tire size is the same as OEM then it won't screw up your speedometer. The 195/60 will give you a bit wider tire with a slightly smaller sidewall, and will only throw your speedometer off by a small amount (if you want to go with that size). Either tire will for just fine.
