The problem is do if you want skinnys for looks or racing. For looks you can just use a narrow street tire. The race skinny tires are not recommended for street use though.

Cool man. Just find a tire that you like the look of. Also I would recommend at least a H rated tire, preferably a V or Z rated. Anything else will have a really soft side wall and will handle terrible.

If that is the size it will read 165/80/HR15
Or VR15. Just see what is available.
