Good morning all,
The gf's Honda Civic is in dire need of some new tyres (the current ones have been on the car for around 35k miles
)
It is running on steel rims sized 185/70/14 now I'll be damned if i can find any decent quality tyres to fit that size. In order to get any kind of 'known' brand, I think I have two options-
a) I replace the steel rims with some shiny 15" alloys, the problem here would be finding some genuine Honda rims before the service / MOT at beginning of next month
b) I go for a slightly smaller tyre profile, say 185/65/14 which at least allows me to fit some Pirelli P6000s.
This is only a 1.4 so super-sized wheels really aren't necessary but I don't know how much the ride height and speedo will be screwed up by fitting slightly small diameter tyres or even bigger alloys.
Any ideas?
