If it's V rated you're going for, go with 16s. V rated 15s are getting hard  
to come by! I'm looking for tires for my Fiero GT, and V rated in its sizes 
are  just not available.

As we  discussed previously, there are very few suitable tires available 
in a 14"  rim diameter and really no high performance tires. You are 
much, much  better off going to a 15 or 16" rim if you're buying new rims 
anyway. That  way you can get a V-rated tire or better... which by itself 
will improve  the handling and driving characteristics of your car more 
than any other  mod being discussed here.
