Please assist I am losing my mind! I have wasted money on two wheel covers that are too big, and I am at a loss on what smaller size to get. All the wheels that Amazon claims will fit my car are just conventional sizes, measuring 14.5" to 15", which are too large for my 2012 Civic. I am thinking around 13 or 14 inches, and I am searching for the glittering diamond ones that are all over Amazon and look like the one in this picture but are obviously less than that. Since there must be steering wheel covers for civics some place, I find it hard to believe that finding one is that difficult. Perhaps I am just missing something obvious! Please, any advice would be greatly appreciated!
hi!
I totally get your frustration! Sizing for steering wheel covers can be tricky, especially when it seems like none of the options fit.
The key is knowing the exact diameter of your steering wheel.
For a 2012 Honda Civic, the steering wheel is typically around 14.5 inches in diameter, but it sounds like you’ve tried that size already with no luck.
Here are a few steps to help you find the right fit:
-
Measure Your Steering Wheel: Use a tape measure to get the exact diameter of your steering wheel. Measure across the center of the wheel to ensure accuracy.
-
Check the Thickness: Sometimes, the problem isn’t the diameter but the thickness of the steering wheel.
Make sure the cover you’re choosing can accommodate the thickness of your wheel.
- Read Reviews: Look for covers specifically listed for the 2012 Honda Civic.
Reviews from other Civic owners can be very helpful in confirming whether a cover will fit.
- Contact the Seller: If you find a cover you like but are unsure about the size, try reaching out to the seller on Amazon.
They might be able to provide more precise measurements or recommend the correct size for your car.
As for the glittering diamond covers, I know exactly what you mean!
They look great, but finding the right size is key.
Hopefully, one of these tips helps you find the perfect cover for your Civic.
Good luck!
Had the same problem. The size that worked for my ‘13 Civic was 14”-14.25”.
Frustrated finding hubcaps? Don’t worry!
- Double-check your Civic’s wheel size (probably 15-inch).
- Search for “hubcaps” (more specific fit) instead of “wheel covers” (generic size).
- Try searching by part number for your car model/year.
- Honda dealerships might have smaller genuine hubcaps.
Good luck finding your sparkly diamond ones!
