Google search a Tire Calculator, enter the stock tire size and enter various 16" tire combinations until you get the size closest to stock.

The "profile" is determined from the width, if you get a 215/40, it'll be taller than a 205/40.

205/45-16 is the proper size for a '96-00 Civic. 205/40-16 is the proper size for a '92-95 Civic.

205 45 16's were not a problem on my 93. Perfect size, IMO.
