    you want to get 195/60R15 or 16 (rims size will vary). They are good for handling, the 205's are ok, but i would suggest the 195's (and they are a lil cheaper) Then again, you're the driver, buy what u like....if you are happy with the tires you have, why switch?

    I ran 195-65-15's this winter on my 94.
    You should have no trouble with 15's, provided you haven't upgraded your brakes.
