i say 165/50 15, but thats best on a 7" wheel for the stretched look, you'll get the same effect, but less exaggerated on a 6" rim

and they aint gonna be cheap

the only other option is a 195/45 15 really, cheaper, but it wont give the desired look....

i shall ask at work tomorrow and see if we can get 165/50/15s for you......
