tire sizes option.

[raveracer77 at yahoo.ca (Rave Racer 77)]

I have mentioned these before and I still have no affiliation, and I still 
like them.  EdgeRacing dot com has Toyo T1R's for $70/tire in the 195/45/14 
size.  This will fit the stock 14X5.5 rims and shrink your overall diameter 
giving you a little better throttle response and almost NO sidewall flex. 
The drawback is that you lose some topspeed and you may need to take a day 
or two to get used to shifting sooner and running higher RPM at highway 
speeds.

Or if you want to spend the money:
