Have loved the website for years to get good sizing. I have wider tread, bigger diameter tires now. Bigger diameter tires may not lose MPG, specially if your transmission has too high rpms on freeways. If the wheel wells are big enough, might a 185x70x15 or 195x70x15 tire fit? Get the car up, so the bumper doesn't plow snow. I changed my original 175x65x14 inch tires on my small car, all the way up to 195x65x15 wheels/tires. Ha ha ha! I now have a..... grown up car.
