205/60-15 is the original tire size...

You may want to check out the Suspension/Tires/Wheels/Brakes section too.

65's will look way to tall. Also you'll get more roll. 55's and 60's are alittle better. You're pretty limited with the stock 15x6 rims. I just picked up some TII wheels (16x7) and mounted 225/50/16's on them and they really fill out the wheel well and helped handling out alot.

go with the stock size. if you want to upgrade(or downgrade) tire sizes go with a different rim.
