How important is a 15x8 wheel to you? How much would you pay for one?
...if the wheel was one piece aluminum 25 offset 5x114.3? The reason I ask is because of the unavailability of cheap 15x8's which seem to be ideal for a readily available wide 15" tire like 225/45/15. I think I may have found some.

+25 seems way too much for most Hondas, but what the heck do I know. And the 5-lug would limit it to ITRs and Civics with 5-lug swaps.

15x8 +25 is 4.98 backspace. right around 5 is good
make in a 4x100 and fairly cheap and count me in.
if you are trying to find some.

is best options.

We would be interested in some 15x8 x 5 x 114.3 But we would be even more interested in 17x8 or 17x9x5x 114.3!!
We want at least 20 wheels for our new projects...

Re: (Boilermaker1)
I got a good deal on these:
They were around 300 shipped from ebay for all five wheels. They are wheels from a Jeep Wrangler, and these are known as the Ravine wheels.

Re: (ludiferino)
the offset is 1" or 25.4mm
The backspace is actually 5.5" because an 15x8" wide wheel is actually 9" wide. 4.5"centerline plus 1" equals 5.5"
If you compare this with a 15x7 35mm offset: The front face of the Ravine wheel sticks out 0.9" more and the backside sticks out 0.1" more.
