Here are some 205/50/15's Not sure what sizes you are looking for so post up some sizes you are looking for and that will help us to point you in the right direction.

Re: low profile tires for 15x6.5 wheels ????
Well if you want to keep your speedo and odometer accurate these are your tire choices in 15"
195/55x15" - this is OEM size 205/50x15" - this is a little shorter (by about 1/4") which will help overall gearing and throw your speedo and odometer off by about 1-2%. Not much.

Re: low profile tires for 15x6.5 wheels ????
aaahhh im being flocked by mods...its like standing in front of a bus full of sergeant majors. anyways i just measured the wheel from the insode lip to the other side of the inside lip and it measures 6" across. so i guess its 15x6. i cant find a damn marking on there to indicate the wheel size but i am guessing it15x6. am i measuring this right or do i need to measure from outside edge to outside edge. i am used to the speedometer being abit off cause of past experiences with 17's anyhow. i think the 205/50x15 would look nice.

Re: low profile tires for 15x6.5 wheels ????
Outside lip to outside lip. If you measured 15x6" on the inside lip then add on about 1/2-1" for the outside lip.

Re: low profile tires for 15x6.5 wheels ????
Yes 205 wide tires will fit on a 6" wide rim. Actually I"ve fit a 225 wide tire on my stock Si rims (15x6") for autocrossing.
