Since you have a fifth gen, I'd look into 215/40/18.
I have heard some runing 225's, but I'm not sure your offset can support it on a fifth. I know Ludes need 215's, I assume 5th gens are closer then Ludes then 6th gens in size.

Hmm, on my previous 96 V6, I had 225/40-18 with an Eibach Prokit. No rubbing problems during normal driving. However, considering you have a 94 Coupe, I am inclined to say once size smaller, 215/40-18.
