14's wheels fit fine, go with taller rubber ie 70 or 75 series and you'll see no change in speedo
I myself use a tall narrow 14 for winter, they cut right through the slush much better that the wider 15's

I use 14's on mine for the winter. If i remember the 14's are of an 88 K-car.

I also use a taller tire on the 14's like a 70 or 75 series
this makes the 14's almost identical to the 15's so the wheel speed sensors and speedo think nothing has changed

the narrower the wheel the better it cuts thru the slop. if anything the neons failing in winter isnt necissarily traction (you will be starting out in 2nd alot) its more ground clearance.
theese light lil cars get the snow packed under them it will actually lift them off the ground
