I think the widest the stock 15" rims can take (Which ones you have? the 7-holeys? or the 8-spokers?) is around size 205 if I am not mistaken. Probably a safe bet is size 195. The standard 175 size tires are narrow IMO.

Could maybe post the question in the "Tires, Wheels, etc" forum on this site. There's a buncha members and sponser members that could answer your question if they happen not to see this post in this forum.
As for the headlight ring replacments, I haven't seen anything like that yet. Doesn't mean it's not out there though. What are you looking at doing to or replacing it with outta curiosity?
Cheers,
