tire size
#2
Yes,and usually cheaper sometimes with a longer warranty and a lower speed rating (113MPH instead of 121MPH). I would not call the factory tires "performance", most people use the word "crap".

Here's a tire calculator that can help you "try" different sizes, and see the speedo error that results from them. I used to use it when I was trying to improve my gearing in a previous car for autocross.

Assuming you are shooting for more comfort, you may want to try something narrower and higher profile. Like a 205-60-16, maybe. Ideally, you'd like to maintain the same outer diameter and add rubber in this case.
