Hey i have been looking around for some new tires to go along with my 1996 civic ex. If you guys could give me your thoughts that would be great. I want to know if it is worth my 400 dollars to buy them? Also would they be a good fit for my car.

This is what the guy said about them that i am looking at buying them.

I have a set of american racing rims 16inch. They are exact copies of momo rims. Tires are in good condition 2 tires good for a season and the other two are good for another two seasons. Fits Honda, Acura, Nissan, Toyotas, and most imports Asking $400 or trade for a good ka24de motor

Those look like decent rims. Keep in mind low-profile, high speed tires don't come cheap. So 400 for all of them I would totally buy them. In fact I live in Canada near Toronto and I drove all the way to southern Pennsylvania for a set of rims that were 425. I couldn't be happier with them either. I will have to replace one tire soon as the belt is off but at high speed low profile tires smooth right out, i love em.
But yea bottom line, low-pros here in canada for good tires can run 180 a piece, so the tires alone a probably worth 200-300 on those rims, then you get the rims for 200. I say do it if you really want a set of rims :)

O I just got the first picture to work now and I just want to say, two of those tires do look pretty low on tread, so him saying a year is definately right. But still, If it was me, I would buy them, plus i really like the dual spoke clusters on rims.
