Typical sizes by trim
The following sizes reflect the factory specifications commonly found on 2007 Civics. If your car has aftermarket wheels or a non-standard configuration, sizes may differ.
- DX/LX (15-inch wheels): 195/65R15
- EX/EX-L (16-inch wheels): 205/55R16
- Si (18-inch wheels on coupe): 235/40R18
Remember that using a different tire size can affect speedometer accuracy, braking, and handling. If you replace tires, aim to match the overall diameter and maintain proper load ratings and speed ratings.
Where to verify your exact tire size
To confirm the exact specification for your vehicle, check the tire placard on the driver's door jamb, consult the owner's manual, or look up the VIN-specific tire information from Honda. If your Civic has aftermarket wheels or a non-stock package, the size may differ from the OEM recommendation.
Maintenance considerations
When replacing tires, it’s best to replace all four tires at once to maintain balanced handling and traction. Use tires with the same size, type, and performance characteristics as recommended for your trim, and regularly check tire pressure and alignment.
