Tyre up-size for City ZX

girisanthan · 22nd November 2009, 23:27

Hi, I have a Honda City ZX Gxi 2008 model. One of the issues I am facing, as a Bangalorean, is the vehicle grinding over the speed-breakers, especially with all 5 seats occupied. The car has a 175 / 65 R14 (Tubeless) which is due for replacement. Will it help (overcoming the issue of rubbing speed-breakers) if I go in for a slightly over-sized tyre? If so what is the next best size? Considering the soft suspension of ZX, will it lead to the tyre rubbing the car body? Thanks.

That wont help. The ANHC has 15" as standard. The NHC has 14".

Why open a new thread when you have dozens? Do a search for NHC in the Tyre and alloy wheel section.

JK,
That link is for A-NHC not NHC.
