I have BF Goodrich G-Force Sport tires on my 1994 900T CV. They are 205/55/15 which makes them the same overall diameter as the stock tire but they are wider. They have a very stiff sidwall so sidewall flex is certainly not an issue; particularly with the shorter sidewall height. They handle incredibly, And look great on the car. I only drive the car in summer. If you are a sportier driver (like to feel some Gs in the curves) a wider tire is the way to go. If you are a cruiser, stick with the stock size or go up to 195s.
