To stay with a 15" wheel, go 215/60/15 for the most rubber and staying close to stock diameter, for 16" 225/50/16 with a fender roll (to be safe) and 225/45/17 for 17" wheels.

I recommend the 215/60/15 for a direct replacement. FIrestone Firehawk SH30s for $66 each in that size from TireRack. They are H-rated and wear great, offer great wet traction and handle nice. (And they won't blow up either like the other Firestones :-D )
