welcome, 15"*50 seems to generally be the biggest before mods are required, but people go as large as 17s. CA18det or 4agze def way to go if you want legal boost. Plenty of info here on the conversion if you get stuck with finding something just ask!

They say that 205/50-R17 can fit if the right wheels are used. The stock Datsun 1200 12" tires are 21.8" diameter, and those 17s are only 25.1".

I've got pintara wheels with 14/175/60 supercats on the 1200 drum struts with 3mm spacers, fits great and the car is pretty low.

If your going CA get yourself decent brakes, which probably means a strut upgrade then fit your wheels around that.
