I'm thinking about getting new wheels, but I'd rather save my money if I can fit wider tires on the stock wheels (1995 ES, 14"). Tires.com has got the plus zero wider tires, but I don't know if they'll fit the stock wheels, if I buy new wheels obviously I'd go bigger than 14", but if I can fit wider tires(205's? hopefully) on the wheels I have now. . . why bother?

According to the sources I've gone to (Tirerack, Haynes, owner's manual), the stock size is 185/65R14. I had 195/60r14 at one time, and my speedo was off ja little. I wouldn't go to 205s without upgrading the rim size. Plus one for an ES is 195/55. I found that size to be very difficult to find in a quality(price/performance) tire. OF course, it's impossible to find really cool 14 inch rims, too. 15s are easier, but the tire selection is small. Kumho 712s are good, but I wanted 716s and couldn't get them. Oh well.
