Q: What is the factory spec for the OEM EG Civic 13-inch wheel with 165/70R13 (CX, VX) on a Honda Civic EG (1992-1995) and Civic del Sol (1993-1997)?

Factory specification. A tire retailer lists 165/70R13 for the CX and VX in 1992 and 1995 (1993-94 pages not read); Honda's TSB 93-029 names P165/70R13 as an original size on 1992-94 cars, without naming trims. Width and offset: Honda prints none in sources read; reference sites give 45 mm for the Civic generally, not for this wheel.
