I got a set of mahles on the way (Thanks Joe). Now I need something to go on them. I am thinking about 195/55/15s, not to big not to small. Has anyone run this size and how did they work out. Or any other suggestions for a 1.7 with no flares and I would like to avoid rolling the fenders.

As Anthony mentions its a smaller diameter than stock. You will be running higher RPMs in each gear. That could be a good thing depending on what your looking for. I think 205/50/15 is the best tire size for stock wheeled 914's. I have run 195/60/15's and liked that size for street driving.
