A little larger diameter than the recommended 215/55/R16 but will have taller sidewalls for added pot-hole protection.
I ran P195/65R15 on my 2000 Base model as snow tires for years so I know that width will work - provided you find a profile for mounting on 16-inch rims that is close to the original summer tires diameter.
