We did this on my wifes 1998 Civic DX automatic because it cruises on the freeway over 3000rpm. We went from 175-65-14's to 195-60-15's that we got from a newer Civic owner that got rims... for $100. We've seen an increase from ~30mpg to ~33mpg average, and that doesn't factor in that we are probably going more miles than the odometer says because of the increase in tire size.
They handle better, look better, and fill up the wheel wells more than the 14's....no rubbing problems.
