The best matching tire size depends on the kind of car you have (which you didn't mention) - 205/40-16 for older Civics, 205/45-16 for Integras and '97-00 Civics, 205/50-16 for many Preludes.

If you don't like the way the tires look - if there is too much wheel, and not enough tire, visible for your taste - then the proper way to deal with it is to get smaller wheels. Don't get tires that are too big for your car, which will open you up to a lot of problems - inaccuracy of the speedometer/odometer, rubbing of tires on the wheel wells or fenders, poorer acceleration, etc.
