hi 195 40 15  tyres ,and i would go for toyo proxes ,ive got bridgestone at the mo and i did have the toyos before on a mk2 and they are the best as far as grip and price,they are about 55 quid all in if you look around, if you are going to donnington next weekend they are for sale always at these shows hope this helps carl.

195's won't give you a stretched look, you want 165/50/15's for really stretch look. Could probably go for 175/50's if its a bit too stretched. It doesn't look too safe though...
