275/35R15 will match factory tyre size.

Have you asked about shipping them I hear the wheels are a decent price but shipping will kill your wallet

Yes I looked in to wheels from Goodwin and it was $125.00 per wheel in freight....(from Memory).
There is an authorised 949 agent in Aussie though, I forget the name but a google should pop it up.
