Just get 185/60-14 tires; it's the best 14" size for your car. Most 185/60-14 tires are approved for mounting on rims 5.0-6.5 inches wide, so you're okay there. If you don't plan to use these in snow, the Yokohama ES100 is available in that size. If you do, you need all-seasons, and the Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS is available in that size.
