    Hi

    I'd like to remove my summer 15"'s and go with 14"'s for winter. What tire
    size can I use?

    Thanks

    If what you have on there now is 195/60/15, then you could use 185/70/14 or
    195/65/14 for winter:

    assuming 14s will clear your brakes.

    Cheers,

    My 02 Civic LX sedan came with 15" all seasons. I put 14" rims and rubber
    for the winter. 14" tires can save you some money. However if you want
    hubcaps you will have to get some new ones to fit the new rim size.

    Definitely recommend winter rubber for your civic. It is very light car.
