I wasn't familiar with this specific bicycle until I just Googled it. You will most likely want t stay with 700c wheels (alternatively marked as 622 - for their diameter in millimeters). From images, it appear that the frame can accommodate tires with up to 32 or 35mm width. What tires selected will depend on your riding and personal preferences. If you're concerned with axle width, I'm going to defer to someone who has better knowledge of this model.

There are so many possible issues with fit of wheels to frame and brakes. If you are a novice, I suggest you consult with a local bike shop before spending any money.
