enumerate: custom list alignment

Question

documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumerate}

begin{document}
    begin{enumerate}[1)]
        item aaa 
        item bbb
        item [2textit{bis})] ccc
        item ddd
        item eee
        item fff
        item [5textit{bis})] ggg
        item [5textit{ter})] hhh
    end{enumerate}
end{document}

How can I align 2bis, 5bis, and 5ter items with the other numbers?

So far your items' labels are right aligned, Do you like to have left aligned? With use of the enumitem package you can simple left align items' labels with option align=left:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumitem}

begin{document}
    begin{enumerate}[leftmargin=*, label=arabic*), widest=7bis), align=left]
        item aaa
        item bbb
        item [2textit{bis})] ccc
        item ddd
        item eee
        item fff
        item [5textit{bis})] ggg
        item [5textit{ter})] hhh
    end{enumerate}
end{document}

If you drop widest=... from enumerate options, than you will get:
