Vehicle model
Honda Civic
The Civic is one of the best-selling models in automotive history, with more than 27 million units sold through 2021. Launched in July 1972, it is now in its eleventh generation (since 2021) and sits between the subcompact Fit/City and the Accord in the lineup. Offered as a sedan, hatchback, and sporty Si and Type R versions, it appeals to a very wide audience: students, commuters, families, and driving enthusiasts. The Civic is assembled in Alliston, Ontario, and remains a pillar of Canadian sales. Its resale value is among the best in the segment. On the tire and wheel side, the Civic uses common compact dimensions; in Quebec, the sporty versions with larger wheels particularly benefit from a dedicated set of winter tires, often mounted on smaller-diameter wheels to reduce costs.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Honda couvrent un large éventail de tailles selon le modèle. Les compactes comme la Civic et le sous-compact Fit roulent généralement sur des jantes de petit à moyen diamètre, tandis que le CR-V et les VUS plus gros adoptent des jantes de diamètre supérieur. La plupart des Honda modernes utilisent un entraxe (bolt pattern) à 5 trous courant chez la marque, ce qui facilite le choix de jantes de rechange et de jeux dédiés aux pneus d'hiver. Au Québec, où les pneus d'hiver sont obligatoires, un second jeu de jantes en acier ou en alliage monté de pneus nordiques est une solution économique et pratique pour ces véhicules. Vérifiez toujours la dimension exacte, l'indice de charge et de vitesse ainsi que le déport inscrits sur la plaque du véhicule.
