Get 225/45-17s or 215/50-17s
Anyother size is way off what should be on the car, not to mention having the wrong size tires will throw off your speedometer and odometer.

those may be too wide for her rims. How wide are your rims? Wider is better, to a certain extent. See my and Auto-9's posts above.
You're better off matching the tread width (first number) to you rim and then pick an aspect ratio based on your preferences/performance.
