I think you have the Yoko S drives available at that size. They are known to have amazing grip but tend to get noisy after few thousand kms on them.

For OE tyres (175/65 R15) the tyre pressure mentioned by Honda is 32pse for the fronts and 30psi for the rears. Tyre gurus, what would be the ideal tyre pressure if the tyres are upsized to 195/60 R15 ? Would the same pressure levels (32,30) hold good ?

Hi all.. Can anyone please tell me what is the offset of the ANHC stock 15'' steel rim (not the alloy) ?
(I want to know the offset value and not the pcd which is 100). Is the offset of the ANHC stock 15'' steel rim 42 by any chance?

These are original Honda Mugen accessory.
Its available in South-East asia + Australia but not available in India.
These are 15 inch alloy wheel.

In India they have other Dual Tone 7 spoke "V" 15 inch alloy, can be used for Jazz and ANHC.

^ Michelin have the best ride comfort as personally tested on 5 ANHCs till date. You may want to upgrade to 195s if you want to upgrade the handling however FE suffers a bit.

No idea about Linea @ecenandu.

Cheers!

What were your OE tires?
Do you plan to upsize for comfort at the compromise of mileage?
If you plan to stick to OE size (175/60/15), then Michelin XM1 is the best choice with respect to drive and ride comfort.
In case you plan to go 185 upsize still you can get Michelin XM1 and in case of 195 you will get Michelin Primacy.
Please read donarun's earlier posts in order to know the benefits as well as loss due to up sizing.
