Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Congrats on the ANHC! I hope you are going to share delivery pictures & an ownership report with the rest of us. The ANHC desperately deserves better rubber, Honda have intentionally under-tyred it so that published fuel efficiency numbers are maximised. Why? Simply because in terms of FE, the ANHC is not a match on the outgoing generation. A 195 patch would be perfect, and maintain the cars chuckability & ride quality. If you want to go further, a 205 is the max. Remember, the quality of rubber is equally / more important as the size. If you care about looks & handling and are willing to compromise on ride quality, 205 on 16 inchers are killer. |

| ![]() Thanks for the replies! Today I enquired about the alloy wheel with the dealer and he is quoting 11K per wheel. I knew it will be very high. I am planning to get it done outside. Any suggestion on the alloy wheel make ? In my earlier car Baleno, I used "Aura" which was pretty good. I am confused about whether to go for only the alloy wheels or both tyres and wheel. Regards Rajesh Devadas |

Infractions: 0/1 (10) | ![]() Hey guys, Just wanted to know,what are the upsizes possible for the new honda city 2008. The stock tire size is 175/65R15. I take it that 195/60R15 & 205/55R15 should fit well. Also is 205/50R16 the correct upsize? What all tires are available in these sizes? |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() All 3 sizes will work fine Abhimanyu. Lots of tyres available too in the 15" sizes, what specific size are you finalising? Limited options in 205/50 R16 though: Yoko S-Drive Yoko A.Drive R1 Quote:
