Substitute rims for 195/65R15 snow tires

I'm looking for rim substitutes (ie. used rims from other vehicles) on which to mount snow tires.I understand from reading other posts that 195/65R15 tires is a good way to go, and that the required bolt pattern is 5 x 100.I also read a post which mentioned Celica wheels as a substitute. Last year I got rims from a Cavalier (I think) which were the right diameter and bolt pattern, but still did not fit due to a difference in the depth of the actual rim dish. So back to the wrecker's they went.Has anyone made a successful substitute they could recommend?Thanks in advance,Jim.

Thanks, silverawd26.A Corolla does make sense, considering the car's origins...
