Wow, that's pretty small by today's cars.Just aboutANYTHING in 16" or 17" will be too big, so the speedometer error will be at least 5% or more.

Like maybe 195/40-16 or 195/35-17
... which are kida silly sizes IMHO.

TireRack says 195/60-15 was stock for '95 EX. That's different...

When Angelo said 14" was stock, I just looked at diameter & figured the sizes I said in post 11.

Go to TireRack's website & pick Wheels & 'shop by vehicle'. There's a way to show a picture of your car with different wheels superimposed. Gives you a good view of what it should look like.

I'm not a big fan of 35-series tires on real-life roads with potholes & stuff. But take a look & remember it's your car, your money, not mine.
