err I'm not sure you have much of a choice - I assume the rims are 7J or 7.5J?
your rolling diameter should be close to 610mm, so that's usually 205/45/17 or 215/40/17, but I'm sure people on the forum run 225s without rubbing, still at 40 profile
If you wanted 'comfort', dare I suggest you should have 16" rims?
