15's, anything bigger will look stupid on a Mk1 and youll really struggle for clearance with the 16" and 17" options you have there anyway, both on the arch and the struts.

I don't understand why people go for massive wheels on a car that wasn't designed for them. 15s. If you go bigger it will look cr4p.  :rolleyes:
