Default 97 accord wheel well size

What is the largest dimension of tire I can fit in my wheel well without it rubbing when I turn? I want to get snow wheels on the car that also raise the body from the ground. So I need it to be as tall as possible. Any ideas? Thanks

215 width.

If you want to go taller for the snow, try some 195/70/14 snow tires on steelies. It'll raise the height a bit and be pretty affordable. It might look a little stupid, but I guess it doesn't matter if it's just for snow. I used to run 215/50/17s on some Konig ricer wheels for snow, that raised it a lot and looked really stupid, but it worked out great in the snow.
