Put the Premium Contact 6's on my 1997 Civic hatch. Found them for pretty cheap used with 7.5mm of tread and copped them up. Absolutely amazed, the tire is quiet, grips very well and is very soft (which I like due to the fact that softer sidewalls means it irons out the roughness of my polyurethane bushings).
Car grips almost like glue, it gives a lot of confidence when driving, especially when pushing the car.

Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Honda Civic 1.5 ls drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
I ha e these tires on the rear of my 1998 Honda Civic which has mild track and fast road use. Coupled with T1R up front I've not had a better combination before. Would certainly KY buy this design again.
Not very good considering it caused me to roll my 1997 Honda civic 1.5ls at 60mph on the a533 middlewich road, The wet grip was under par as the circumstances of the roll came about was the the back tires broke loose, i corrected and it stepped out again and then flung me into the kerb and causing the car to roll and land in a ditch. I would have thought maxxis experince with tkm karting or drifting would have filtered through into the tires but it appears not.
