Downsize wheel for winter

Hi there.

My 2010 Civic "Sport" Sedan is equipped with 205/55-16 tires. For winter, I want to put on a narrower, higher sidewall winter tire. The DX uses 195/65-15. Does anyone know if a 15" wheel will fit?

thx

15" rims should fit, and yes, you'll need to go with a taller sidewall to keep the overall tire diameter close to that of stock size.

Here's a nifty tire size calculator to help you pick the right size: Tire size calculator

The P195/65R15 from DX model will fit without any issues.
