What year Civic do you have? Cause that size is not the correct size. 205/50x15" is the better choice and will keep your odometer and speedo accurate.

Kumho Ecsta 712s (which I had this past year) are inexpensive, and so are Falken Azenis (which I have now).

Why would you get low profile tires for 15's My friend who drives a 240sx thought it would look good with 15's and it just looks gay and ugly. It also messed up his speedometer. If you want low profile tires, you should have gotten 17's or something like that.

why would i have gotten 15's?? Maybe because they weight 11.8 lbs a peice an basically are spoon knockoffs. Ive had 17's, twice to be exact, there heavy, and i like the smaller rims with bigger drop look....thanks to the people who actually helped me with my question.

Agreed anyone perofromance minded will agree that Nitto or Toyo make some pretty poor tires (Excluding the Toyo T1s dry grip)

Why 205-45-15, that is an off size for a Civic???

Yes www.tirerack.com is by far the cheapest.

www.discounttire.com
will match or beat their prices and are on par with support.

Any of the Bridgestone Potenza line, namely the RE950 provides awesome all around grip.
The Kuhmos are a good tire for dry grip/wet is average.

there are many good tires, just depends on your budget.

The best thing about this place is people are versed well in different products, we can tell you what works and does not work for us and many others.
You give us a price and size we will help you.
