Fitment comes from each tyre'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 Honda Civic Hatchback drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Road - With differing gradient I found the R888's to be of great grip and always had confidence in them not to give way, but over smooth tarmac there was simply nothing more annoying than the WHOOOOOO they make, seriously had a feeling that a wheel bearing was gone in the car! They're not the comfiest tyre to use on street applications as they're stiff, harsh and extremely noisy! It was nice having the confidence there if needed. Thread wear wasn't extraordinarily bad considering the type of tyre they are, but every single mile they were used was simply worth it. With spirited driving in the dry you had no worries, but once it got wet out you have to slow down and think about it, standing water is the absolute devil with these but otherwise they're fine, once you can keep them in check! I'd rather stick with T1-R's for the street though.
Track - Along with the street use, these got me through 2 trackdays, a drag racing day and general usage. There's simply nothing better for the price to gain confidence, grip and a quick time on track! The amount of grip they give, even from cold is simply astonishing, you're always wondering whether they're going to slip out but they just keep on pulling and sticking to the ground. I've had the front step out only once and that was mostly due to driver error, while the backs were constantly providing me with sufficient grip to control the back kicking out under hard turning. In slight damp the soft compounds were a little bit harder to keep in check, but the mediums were simply a delight. Could not honestly believe how well these performed in the wet, I'd go as far as to say they're almost as good as they are in the dry! Thread wear throughout a trackday is immense, you just do NOT notice the tyre wearing down, they literally grip until they're slick all over! During the drag day, I had that much confidence in them that I could launch at 6000rpm without a single bit of wheelspin, just straight grip throughout every gear under very harsh circumstances!
I'll definitely be buying another set very, very soon! I absolutely can not, and will not go for anything else!
On the expressway on my way back home, it started to rain hard, and I wanted to see if the V-shaped tread pattern was any good on wet roads. I took the car up to about 120-130 km/h, and the car just went straight ahead, ignoring the puddles all over the road.
Dry and wet braking are good. With my old Dunlop Le Mans tires I couldn't brake as late as I wanted to; however, with the Maxxis Victras, late braking became less risky as the car responded well to brake inputs.
Overall, I would say that the Maxxis Victra MA-Z1 tires give you good value for your money. It's a tire that I have recommended to a lot of my friends who regularly drive on race tracks (since the Victras have relatively good grip and are rather cheap), and a tire that I will definitely buy again.
