Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I think 165r15 is what you want. VW Beetle size tires. That's what I ran on my 95 Formula, Pep Boys had em in stock.

When I first bought tires for my skinnies I bought 26x6.0-15. I did not like them at all. I felt it was way too wide of a tire to be on a 3.5" rim, and also it even looked to big as far as diameter. Kind of messed up the car's stance. So I wanted barely smaller diameter but quite a bit wider, so I went with 25x4.5-15 for my next tire and I love them. I will stay with the 4.5" tire unless for some reason in the future I want a little bit more contact patch for stability and control. But for right now, I do not have any problems with them.

And the 25x4.5-15's are Moroso DS-2 tires. I got them from summit racing.
