thing is, if you increase from say a 155 70 13, to a 175 70 13, the sidewall is bigger. although wider tyre, its going to be a fraction taller aswell.

as rupert says the overal wheel diameter will be about 15mm taller if you go for a wider wheel

if you were to go for 175's, maybe 175 65 13 be a better option.

id just not bother doing anything unless your tyres are bald. if so, could get some cheap runners from a scrap yard for a fiver each or something?
and yeah will fit fine on a 13" steel
