Default Accord Hybrid wheels/tires

Hi! Currently I have 16 inch alloy wheels on my 2005Accord Hybrid and would
like to get the low fat profile look. What size wheels (17"?) and tires
should I get to achieve that without any fender rubbing problems on turning?
Thanks!

Take a look at www.tirerack.com. They have a very cool wheel selector.
Interference is not just a factor of wheel diameter and tire profile.
The wheel offset is another factor. When you go to extremes, there is
also a risk of interference with the brakes. In other words, you want to
choose a supplier that will guarantee that the tires and wheels supplied
will fit your car, or that they will take them back if they don't.
