To rrocket the Tire size is 195/65-15 , I’ve used ( all studded) General Altima ( very good), Pirelli (cannot remember the specific model - good but very noisy) , Goodyear (meh) and without studs - Blizzaks ( also good ).

Ask and ye shall receive! Plus a 7% off code (REBATE7)  Many of us (me several times) have bought tires from here.

rrocket - excellent - much appreciated. To the queries as to why 15s - this is minus sizing for the winter as my summers are 215/45-17 ( first season on Conti dws06 which are proving to be vast improvement over the Firestone  FR740s they replaced).

2012 civic, 15s and drum brakes in the rear.

 I don't mind at all tires are inexpensive

My 1986 prelude had 13s though.

15" wheels fit on all Mazda 3s with 2.0L engines on them, disc brakes all around. 195/65R15 winter tire prices are way more pallatable than 205/55R16.

14" wheels fit on 2003-08 Corollas even, except for the limited XRS run. Not sure about 09+.

i'll have to look into possible downsizing for my winter wheel options...the higher sidewall helps provide a smooth no bump ride and with a smaller sized tire, i can likely get a good deal on some Hercules Tires...stock tires are 225/55/19 but i'm thinking about 225/65/17 for winter.

You can never go wrong with Hercules,  as long as you have the right tire pressure  ;D

Impossible to screw up the tire pressure.  It's right on the sidewall!

You've got to be careful.  Sarcasm doesn't always translate well in print.  Some folks will read that and think you are serious.
