Default Rim size 2006 Accord

I have a 2006 Accord with 16 rims. I have 4-15" winter tires I want to repurpose. When I am looking for rims what do I look for 15", 5 hole then ???

Per TireRack.com you need a set of 15x6.5 wheels (which should have a set of 205/65 R15 tires mounted on them) with a bolt pattern of 5-114, an offset of +45mm and a backspacing of 5.47".

What size are the tires you're trying to repurpose?

IIRC, I used a set of 195/65 R15 snow tires on a 2003 Accord 4-cyl without any problem. Not the ideal size, but they worked. Should be the same for yours if it's 4-cyl.

I just tried TireRack, and for the V6 Accords they don't go smaller than 16" wheels. If you have a V-6 it might be that the brakes are bigger than the 4-cyl cars.

I'm going to move this over to the Wheel/Tire area.

The tires are 195 65 15 so they should be good. I put them beside the tires on the car and they are very close. I guess just a little bit narrower.

Is your car a V-6? If so, make sure you find out whether the brakes are too big for 15" rims. That's my SUSPICION because TireRack listing for 15" snow package dissappears when I change the car to a 2006 V-6.
