The tires are POS. I have had I think 3 repairs done already. My z-rated tires on my old Focus had less problems over twice the miles.

I plan to use them up then search for wheels and tires. Slightly off-topic, are there some wide Honda brand wheels that will fit our cars to get the fender and wheels flush?

You don't want to buy OEM wheels. They're outrageously expensive and not that great. You could buy a set of Enkei's for the less than the price of a new set of OEM wheels and have a stronger, lighter wheel that actually offers choices on size.

Thanks for the input. I guess I could go for non-OEM wheels. I just like keeping things stock(ish) looking.

Aftermarket wheels don't have to be chromed out spinners lol. Just take a look around. I suggest enkei mainly because of the value and they're pretty easy to get.
