Replying to: scamper2 (Mar 21, 2009 6:44 pm) There is a service Bulletin. HONDA is aware there is an issue with a control arm in the back end. I just replaced 4 tires at 26,000 miles. HONDA sees no problem with replacing tires at this point.

Replying to: oktexchic (Aug 10, 2009 7:57 am) With 26,000 miles per year (I take it that is only the commute) if it were me, it makes all the sense in the world to keep the stock wheels. Then, just keep yourself in good quality commute tires.
#235 of 238 Tire specs vs. OEM by texastransplan Oct 17, 2009 (5:29 pm)
My daughter drives a 2007 Honda Civic LX Sedan. She needs to replace the tires. The OEM tires have a Speed Rating of H and a Load Rating of 91. Would there be any ill-effects from replacing them with tires with a Speed Rating of T and a Load Rating of 89?   I know that a T Speed Rating indicates a lower speed than the H, but T is supposed to be OK up to 118mph, which should cover anything she will do.   I'm less sure about the difference in the Load Rating.

Would there be any ill-effects from replacing them with tires with a Speed Rating of T and a Load Rating of 89?   Here's a chart that will help you see how much weight difference will be going from a 91 to an 89:   http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=35 Replies to this message: texastransplan (Oct 27, 2009 11:04 am) jet10000 (Oct 29, 2009 6:41 am)

Replying to: jet10000 (Oct 20, 2009 8:17 pm) Thanks for the response.   If I am interpreting the chart correctly, each tire could hande 1279 lbs for the lower rated tire vs. 1356 for the higher.   1279 x 4 = 5116   1356 x 4 = 5424   So the load carrying capacity of the car would be reduced by 318 lbs.   5,116 lbs sounds like plenty for a vehicle with a curb weight of 2,657 lbs.
