What wheels and tyres offer the best ride on the Audi A1?

I’m looking at buying a new/used Audi A1 Sportback, but am not sure which wheels and tyres to fit in order to get the best possible ride. Can you help?

Also, if I buy new, is the Drive the Deal website best for bargains?

Order with 15-inch alloy wheels with 205/55 R15 tyres. Yes, Drive the Deal is safest.
