5J or 5.5J for 185/65/14

I plan on buying four 185/65/14 winter tires in the next couple of months and I want to buy some used wheels on craigslist to mount the tires on. Through my research I've found that there are 5J and 5.5J stock wheels available. Since I plan on buying the stock 185/65/14 size for my 2000 Civic LX, what wheel size should I be looking for, the 5J or the 5.5J? Or will either work?

For the record, the car has 5.5J on them right now so I want to know if the 5J can work with 185/65/14 tires.

Thanks in advance.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Yes you can.
14x5 was a stock size according to the catalog.
