You would need 5 stud mate not 4 so 5 x 100. Everything else ie. tyre size is fine and hardly affects speedo.

what engine have u got? i have a 1.2 and they have slowed the cars top speed by around 20mph, but i have realy heavy tt wheels, obviously most wheels are alot lighter so wont make much difference

get better tyres! I've got the 1.9 with BF Goodrich tyres, I find it very hard to spin the wheels, almost impossible to do in 2nd unless I'm cornering hard at the same time.
