Default are there ANY 15X5 aftermarket wheels?

my parents are maybe getting some wheels for my sister for christmas but want to use the stock tires
i told them that 90% you won't be able to find 15X5 but they insisted anyway
every 15 inch aftermarket wheel i've found have not been 15X5, and they're not even the kind she wants.
anyway, i'm pretty sure its hopeless but i'll try anyway

15x5? What a waste of perfectly good money.

why are you stuck on 15x5? are you looking for 155/80r15 size tires as well? :lmfao:

15x7 gives you the widest range of tire sizes for civics & gives you the max contact patch for stock size (195-55-15)--if you're stuck on getting skinny wheels 15x6 is about the slimmest you'll find

Just take a knife to each tire. Now she can get bigger wheels.

But here's a whole list of 15s.

If it doesn't work, just goto www.tires.com, click on Wheels, then Size, then select 15".

the tires she has now will mount on 15x6 and 15x7's--probably even on 15x8's depending what size her tires are

Or you could sell the existing wheels and tires that you have now and use that money to get a new set of wheels/tires. Maybe even the set of 16's like she wanted.
