  • Q. Is it possible to upgrade to 195 or 205 section wider tyres on city with the OEM rim? What tyre width is better recommended? As many reviews states that 185 section is too narrow for the size of this car and it affects handling and high speed stability.

    Honda City features 185/55 R16 and a thicker tread and perhaps 17-inch alloys would suit this now bigger car better. Moreover, manufacturers do offers some space if in case the user wants to upgrade the tyres or wheels. If you are willing to upgrade, you may opt for the 195 section tyres for better handling.

    @ MilindSinha | Thanks for the advice.I have 2 questions:1. Any idea if the original factory fitted rim on the new 2020 honda city would accommodate 195 or 205 section wide tyres?2. You recommended 17' upgrade on the factory fitted 16' rims. Will that compromise on comfort level?

    I would advise against 17 inch alloys. It would only contribute in looks department, significantly affecting ride quality because of lower profile, say 195/45R17. I would recommend 205/55R16, or better yet, 205/60R15 - best for both road grip and ride comfort.
