Steel isn't suggested, they tend to rub. Get some cheap ($100 or less) 15" alloys and tires. Many of us have gotten stuff from Wheel & Tire Zone in Mississauga (I got used 16" MINI X-lites with runflat winter Dunlops rather than 15"). 2nd Time Around tires is also supposed to be good but I haven't used them.

Good luck,
Harry
