I've never used those tires personally. I'm currently running Kumho Escta AST 205/50/15 as summer/all season tires. They're cheap and work pretty nicely on a 6th gen.

I run the s.drives as my street tires. Great tires. I wrote a review on them here https://www.hondacivicforum.com/foru...t=28490&page=5

as for the size... 205 should fit fine but technically you should have a 55 series tires. I've seen people run 50 on 6th gens and they look and fit fine(if the car is lowered) but it'll throw your speedometer and odometer off.
