Very handy calculator for getting a fatter tire without screwing up your speedometer
Tire Size Calculator - Tire & Wheel Plus Sizing

Lots of good tire/wheel info here too --> Car Bibles : The Wheel and Tyre Bible Page 4 of 4
And other stuff on his main page -->The Car Maintenance Bibles

I'm now running ExtremeContact DWS in 215 45 17 on my Volans.
Sears Auto managed to scrape the paint on one of them, so they bought me a new wheel.
I like the tires so far. Anything is better than the worn out, leaky Toyos I had on it before. Seems to ride a little nicer with 215s vs 205s. Of course, part of what I like about this particular car is how stiff the suspension is, and how it handles, so I'm not sure if a slightly nicer ride is really an upgrade or not.
