215/45/17 is what you are looking for!

you can go a little bit wider without rolling or pulling fenders. I believe 225/40/17?

225/45/17 or even 235/45/17 but I don't think he is lowered and I don't think he cares too much for the advantage of going wider... certainly if this for a daily commuter/grocery car.

235/45/17 is pretty tall for a car that uses 215/45/17 as a factory size (on the Si model). It might look funny because of the sidewall height.... and I doubt he has 8" wide wheels.
