12 pounds is plenty light but the 5.5" width is a bit narrow. Even 6" would have been better.
Many tire sizes do fit from 175/65-15 up to 205/55-15. Just try to keep the outer tire diameter close but not more than 24.4" for best speedo accuracy.
Nothing wrong with 185/65-15 or 195/60-15. If you are commuting then the narrow tires work well. If you have light snow and All Season tires the narrow tires are best. If you like to corner hard the 195 to 205mm wide tires work well. Tire weights are usually lower for 15" tires.
Holeys do well with either MC or MCS or cabrios.
If you search on ebay you can find Holeys and if you can't then aftermarket 15x7 rims will work very well too. Usually not hard to find at 12 lbs or less per rim.
