Default Another Tire post

I have a 2004 GT Vert. I believe it has stock 17" chrome cobra rims. I bought it new from ford. I am getting 1000 dollars back from taxes and need new tires. I was wondering what size I could put on these. I want to go wider in the rear. I also have H&R super sport springs. Any help will be appreciated. These are the wheels I am not sure what size they are exactly.

I don't know if I can afford 2 sets of tires. I think I just need one good set but I have no clue what to get. Track mabye once a month when the weather is nice and the rest just everyday driver.
