If you can get something in 195/55R15, that would be ideal, even though it's still kinda narrow.

It all depends how far off you don't mind being. Right now I am running 215/55R16's on a car designed for 205/60R15's. In other words, my speedo/odo is 2.5% too slow.
Wow, if I do say so my self that was a pretty impressive explanation. Cool tire calculator Kai, thatll come into use pretty soon.
