Default what size tires do i need for my new wheels? 94 accord

i have a 94 accord LX 5 speed.

i just got some alloy wheels that go on a 93 prelude. the tires that are on them are way smaller than what was on my stock wheels. i know my speedo and all will be wrong, ill use a friend to see how off it is tonight. im not on this forum much. i would have searched, as i know thats the best option and what i always do on my regular forum(rx7club), but i couldnt find the search button on here. maybe i didnt look hard enough. anyways heres what i need to know?

what size tires do i need to put on 15's so my speedo and all will be as close to accurate as possible?

also, same question, except 17's?

thanks

15x6.5?

i think my stock spec(six gen) is 195/65/15

actually the manual states what size of tires you need, not sure is your wheel is aftermarket or not.

If you're going to roll 15's on a 94 Accord, the tire size you want is 195/60/15. That's the tire size that came on stock 94' Accords with 15" rims. If you're going to roll 17's, you're gonna want to use 205/45/17 size tires. Other sizes will fit but these 2 will be the best fit.

205 45 17 is perfect for 17x7

it would be slightly taller than oem spec but it's not by much
