Stock tire and rims have to go. OK I want them to go. Must still handle great and if possible get better fuel mileage or something

Refrence "America's Tire" chart at America'stires.com size 14 to 17. 185-60 to 215-35 Tire Rack may also have the same info. Please keep in mind the wider and larger the tire and rims are, the more hp it takes to turn the wheel. It will cost a bit more in fuel.
