2000 Civic LX Tires

Hey all!

Looking to get new tires soon for my civic, but have a question. The stock size is 185/65/14R, but I'd like a wider tread, say 195. Is that possible on the stock wheel? Also, I don't know much about tires, so if I got a wider tread (195) how does that affect the ratio? Should I get 195/65 or can it be 195/55, etc? What is the difference really? I get the width part, and size, but don't understand the ratio.

Thanks for any info and possibly a good overall tire recommendation? Any experiences good or bad?

Thanks,
Nick

Thats what i always use to check out tire sizes to compare with stock size or whatever...Works pretty well for me..Shows speed and all if you change your sizes how much speed will be off and stuff...

Just tought id throw that out maybe it will help you some...later
