Tirerack will have a Plus 1, 2, 3 conversion table, I'm sure, but here is what I used:
205 X 1.3 / 25.4 + 15 = 25.49"
width X height (.65 aspect times 2), divided by 25.4 to convert to inches, + 15 (height of stock rim)= 25.49"
So 225/60/15 would be:
225 X 1.2 / 25.4 + 15 = 25.62"
So I'm a little off (.13" higher), but I'm comfortable with that.
I think the older 4th Gen SE Models use 215/60/15, later ones used 215/55/16.
235/45/17 work out to 25.326".
Or just talk to the folks at Tire Rack (www.tirerack.com). If you are looking for a good, cheap stock replacement, I recommend the Firestone (yeah, I know, but good AS tires) Firehawk 225/60/15 HRs, $70 a tire. I found Dunlop D60A2s to be a great improvement over stockers and the Firehawks were still better than the D60's.
