Honestly, I'd just get whatever the smallest wheel that can fit on your car and is around 8in wide, toss some used Hoosiers on them and call it a day.
Seriously, scan sccaforums for used tire/wheel combos that may fit your car and drop an offer. Dont look to be too optimal, just look to get some proper used rubber. My tire/wheel combo for BMW is not great at all. Like I said, the wheels I use are fairly heavy and the tires were made in 2005 (for r-comps, this is a VERY long time to dry out and turn to rocks) and are only a 205 width.
