will this work? - 7/17/2007 11:10:14 PM    myrtle71590   Posts: 60 Joined: 6/22/2007 Status: offline I know this might sound stupid but my dad just bought me 15' X 6.5" wheels for my 1996 accord lx. ONly thing is, is that the tires that I have on my stock wheels are meant for 15X5.5", which are the stock dimensions of my wheels. THe tires are new and I really did not want to replace them if I didnt need to. Would putting the tires that I have on my oem wheels right now on to the new 15X6.5" wheels be okay or no? _____________________________ 1996 Accord LX 2.2L SOHC Post #: 1
