Using that same size, where stock was 215/55-16.
This is with Bridgestone PP S-02s, as measured using a GPS. I've discovered that tire makers are pretty inexact with their sizes, so I'd be prepared for a variation. Actually, when I used an online tire calculator, 235/45-17s showed to be the closest in circumference to the stock 16s.

p.s. the plus-one upgrade is a good one, although the wheels ding MUCH more easily than the 16s. And, mileage takes a surprisingly big hit as well.
