Since you didn't give us any information, current tire size, and rim size you are going with...go here, plug in the numbers of your current size, play around with different sizes and find the best match.

here is a easy formula for calculating rolling tire diameter: If you have a 235/45-17 work it like this: (section width(235) x 0.aspect ratio(0.45))x 2 divided by 25.4(this number will never change) + wheel diameter(17) = Overall Diameter.
235 x .45= 105.75... 105.75 x 2= 211.5... 211.5/25.4= 8.32 8.32 + 17= 25.32 This has been stated before but I hope this helps. Just play with numbers of tire sizes that you want after figuring your current size and you will see what works and what doesn't.
195/70-14 = 215/45-17 +/- 0.1 inch that is what I went from and to

Granted, math is fine and dandy, very handy tool to have once in a while, that is why I took, and passed, every math class I could find in college. I don't see too many instances where someone is going to have an emergency and need to calculate the rolling circumfrance of their tire vs some other tire they are looking at.
Just go to the website, Junior.
P.S. Before your panties get into a twist, I'm just playin.
