Size opinions

OK, so my 97 200sx came with 13" steelies that look and ride terrible. Im looking for a new set of rims. Either 15" or 16", I cant make up my mind. So I figured Id ask here. I drive about 130 miles a day in my 200sx, about 97% is on the highway. No major potholes, but you never know. Anyway, from what Ive read here, 50 series works well with the 15's, and 40's for the 16's. Im afraid that the 40 series is not enough tire for what I do. I dont race, no track time ever, just a commuter car. 15's seem to right way to go, but 16's look great on these cars, which is why im stuck. What do you guys ride on? How is the ride? Is it just safer for me to go with the 15's? Snow, rain and all that other stuff that daily drivers see is a big factor too. Opinons...I need opinions!!

Safely you could do:

175/65R14
185/60R14
205/55R14
195/60R14

195/50R15
205/50R15
185/55R15

205/40R16
205/45R16
185/50R16

These should fit based on tire calculators.
