Also would the 195/65/R16's work? That's the size most are carrying. They are not carrying 185's either. UGH!

Thanks!

Any decent tire shop should be able to get tires from their local wholesaler within a day or so. I find it hard to believe that they don't stock any 15s if the location in your profile is correct. We salt the hell out of our roads in the winter up here and there are still plenty of cars spec'd with 15s rolling around. If you can't find a shop that's not trying to up-sell you on a new set of wheels, I'd take the advice of the gentleman from Rhode Island above and buy from Tire Rack.
