You have already received some good advice; The following may help you with
your decision. Gear ratio's (tire and wheel size) directly effect your
milage and acceleration. I personally try to keep the same overall gear
ratio that the manufacture designed the car with. It's usually the best
combination of milage and performance. Go to

on wheels and tires, click on tire size calculator on right. Good Luck
