Can I put 205/60 15 tires on 15x6 wheels without any problems. I only ask because the wheels that the tires are currently on are 15x7 wheels and I really don't want to have to buy new tires for the 15x6 wheels. I have looked all over the web and could never find a straight answer so hopefully I can get a straight answer here.

You can mount them on those rims, but I can't tell you if they will rub anywhere under the vehicle. Also, because you want to use a 6" rim with a 60 series tire, chances are the center of the tire will wear out faster.

Well in that case what tire size would you recommend for the 15x6 rims?

THE OEM SIZE FOR AN ACCORD IS A 195-60-15. THAT IS THE ONLY SIZE I CAN RECOMMEND.
