Not something I want to do personally just to get a certain Michelin tire which is not made in the exact size my owners manual states is the stock tire size the car was made to use. I always use the exact tire size my Civic HX owners manual states to use on this car.

I wish Michelin made a few more models of tires in the 14" size I want to buy just to have more options.

Not a big deal because the Michelin Defender is available in the size I need and that tire is extremely high rated. I like the fact that this is the tire several people on this forum are using which says allot...
