Default 1998 Type R questions

Just purchased one and it's AWESOME

https://www.scoobynet.com/members-ga...-v-new-er.html

but i do have a few queries

1: Fuel tank size

2: What do the original mats look like and i can't seem to attach them to the seat runners (my 93 wrx had a hook to attach the mats to keep them from sliding about)

3 : Tyre question it has 17s on it i guess the usual suspects are all good (Toyos ,F1s etc) any oither recommendations for tyres and what size sholud they be (mine are 215/45 at the mo) and what should be the load/speed rating

TIA
Paul

60 litres, can't remember what my mats looked like, think they were plain without logo's or any plastic fittings, also had a third piece which went across the the middle of the rears.
Tyres size was actually 205/50/16 but accepted 17's on classics are 205/45/17 or 215/40/17 which is what I ran on my old Type R with z speed rating and I think it was something like 83 speed load on Toyo's but higher the better
