A 192/60/13 would be good, and tire rach has the HTR 200 in that. Sumitomo also has the saxion line, We have them on my wifes LE and they are real nice.

Well, it ain't an RX7, and it ain't a waffle wheel, but here's a 205/60/13 tire mounted on a 5.5 inch rim. Yes, that tire is worn out, I only used it to transport my RX4.
Pretty bulge-y.
