And if you are going to buy some, try tyreleader.co.uk.
It is a UK website but a German company. Shipping is free, I have used them twice. Orders are trackable. Really, really good Bridgestones came in at £54 each delivered last week.

205/55 is the orginal recommended tyre but many believe (myself included) that they handle much better on a decent 205/50 and look better too if lowered a little.
205s are much easier to get and cheaper for decent tyres too.
If the car is all orginal though and on standard suspension, probably better off sticking to 55s however
