David,
The stock tire size for a Spitfire 1500 is 155SR13. This is
equivalent to 155/80R13. I personally like the 175/70R13 size. It is
20 mm (0.79") wider, but due to the lower aspect ratio, the outer tire
diameter is the same and you get better cornering. I have a set of
Perelli's, but there are lots of good brands to choose from.
