Finding new rims at a junkyard?
 
I have an Accord 2017 LX Sedan with 16 in tires. I am trying to see if I can find new rims for a set of winter tires at junkyards. Unfortunately, they don't appear to have any 2017 Accords at these junk yards and it appears up to me to determine which cars they might have that would have compatible rims to my car.

I am not sure how to even start this process? Perhaps looking at the spec that define the rims my accord can use? Tire Rack appears to give me rims that would work with the accord, but I do not see their specs or a way to relate them to other cars?

I have a vague idea talking to people that I need to find something with the same bolt configuration, space for the disk break, and maybe a particular offset and range of diameters.

I would love to hear any comments on how to approach this problem. Thank you!!

It seems that WheelSize.com has all the vehicles with the same bolt patterns and that offset can be increased with spacers while hub-centric rings can fix centre bores that are too large. WheelSize.com also shows which vehicles have the same sized tire. Is there anything else to take account of that I am missing?

I ended up finding a set of Honda Accord 2006 hubs that fit my Honda Accord 2017. The rim diameter was 6.5 instead of 7, and offset was 55 instead of 50, but it ended up working well. The junk yard seller told me the rims were 5x115 instead of 5x114.3, but I did not find this to be the case.
