What is the wheel size of the 10th-generation Civic?
2 Answers
The 10th-generation Civic comes with two wheel sizes: 16 inches and 17 inches. Wheel size refers to the diameter of the wheel, which is a metal component that supports the tire mounted on the axle, resembling the shape of a steel rim, hence wheels are also called rims. Bigger or more complex wheels are not necessarily better; they should be chosen in conjunction with the tires. Here is more information about the 10th-generation Civic: 1. Vehicle dimensions: The 10th-generation Civic is a compact sedan launched by Dongfeng Honda. Its body dimensions are 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. 2. Exterior design: The 10th-generation Civic largely retains the styling of the overseas model, featuring full LED headlights. The side profile is more daring than the front, with a gently sloping C-pillar resembling that of a coupe. It also adopts bracket-style LED taillights with a dart-shaped light cluster.
The wheel size of the 10th-generation Civic is typically 16 inches or 17 inches, depending on the specific configuration and model version. I drive a 2019 model myself, equipped with 16-inch wheels, which feels quite comfortable for city driving because the tires on smaller wheels are thicker, providing better cushioning against road bumps and reducing noise. For highway driving, there are also 18-inch options, like those on sportier models. Those larger wheels look more stylish and offer better stability during turns, making the car feel more planted at higher speeds. When buying a car, don’t just focus on the wheel size number—consider the tire width and offset as well, as these affect turning radius and fuel efficiency. When I last changed my tires, the mechanic advised against randomly altering the size, as it should match the factory design to avoid impacting the suspension system or even safety. Generally, standard cars fall within the 16-18 inch range, so check the manual or ask the salesperson when choosing a car to confirm.
