Default Wheel Size Suggestions

I am looking on some wheel types and sizes.

The OEM wheels are kind of goofy, too slim for my taste. However, if I change wheel diameter for bigger ones, it will throw the Speedo out of whack. I am trying to get a biffier looking wheel, I am not on the + size rims. Will like to keep the stock suspension setup. What size of rims and tires can I get, or might look better. Can I get a wider tire that will fit the OEM rims? If I go larger, where or how can adjust the Speedo?
